Israel Kills Palestinian Journalist in Gaza Despite Ceasefire

A Palestinian journalist, Mahmoud Wadi, was killed in an Israeli drone strike in Khan Younis, Gaza, despite a ceasefire agreement brokered by US President Donald Trump. His death raises the number of journalists killed in Gaza since October 8, 2023, to 257, prompting grief from his father and colleagues who described him as a humanitarian. The ongoing violence has seen at least 356 Palestinians killed since the ceasefire began, with calls for protection of journalists largely ignored by Israel. Palestinian officials view the targeting of journalists as an attempt to conceal Israeli actions in the region.
