STORY: Debris, rubble and bloodstains were seen on Monday (August 11) at the site of an Israeli strike that killed Al Jazeera journalist Anas Al Sharif and his colleagues.

The prominent Al Jazeera journalist who had previously been threatened by Israel was killed along with four colleagues in an Israeli airstrike on Sunday (August 10), in an attack condemned by journalist and rights groups.

Israel's military said it targeted and killed Anas Al Sharif, alleging he had headed a Hamas cell and was involved in rocket attacks against Israel.

Al Jazeera rejected the claim and before his death Al Sharif had also rejected earlier claims by Israel that he was connected to Hamas.

Al Sharif, 28, was among a group of four Al Jazeera journalists and an assistant who died in a strike on a tent near Shifa Hospital in eastern Gaza City, Gaza officials and Al Jazeera said. An official at the hospital said two other people were also killed in the strike.

Calling Al Sharif "one of Gaza's bravest journalists," Al Jazeera said the attack was a "desperate attempt to silence voices in anticipation of the occupation of Gaza."

The other journalists killed were Mohammed Qreiqeh, Ibrahim Zaher and Mohammed Noufal, Al Jazeera said.

Al Sharif was previously part of a Reuters team which in 2024 won a Pulitzer Prize in the category of Breaking News Photography for coverage of the Israel-Hamas war.

The Israeli military said in a statement that Al Sharif was the head of a Hamas cell and "was responsible for advancing rocket attacks against Israeli civilians and IDF (Israeli) troops," citing intelligence and documents found in Gaza as evidence.

Journalists' groups and Al Jazeera denounced the killings.

A press freedom group and a United Nations expert previously warned that Al Sharif's life was in danger due to his reporting from Gaza. U.N. Special Rapporteur Irene Khan said last month that Israel's claims against him were unsubstantiated.

“The killing of our colleagues, the journalists from Al Jazeera, is a crime that was not the first of its kind. The occupation - from the beginning of the aggression - has killed tens of journalists and this is a crime that the international parties must stand up to (against), and there must be a court (case) against the occupation for these crimes that are committed against our colleagues who convey the truth.”

But I tell the occupation that your bombardment on us increases our determination and resolve in conveying the voice of the suffering of our people in Gaza, and we show your crimes against our Palestinian people in Gaza Strip.”
