MORE than 250 media outlets in over 70 countries staged a front page protest yesterday, highlighting the killing of more than 200 journalists in Israel’s war on Gaza. The worldwide protest took place the day after Al-Quds Today TV correspondent Islam Abed was killed in an Israeli strike in Gaza, adding to the mounting toll in what has become the deadliest war for journalists in recent history. Islam Abed was killed on Sunday evening when an Israeli warplane dropped a bomb on Gaza City. Independent analysis by Al Jazeera reveals that at least 278 journalists and media workers have been killed by Israel over the past 22 months, including 10 from its own network. The media group said it has filed four complaints at the International Criminal Court for war crimes the Israeli army has committed against journalists in Gaza.
