Gaza’s journalists: ‘Targets’ or ‘casualties’ of Israel’s war?
Gaza’s journalists are being killed at an unprecedented rate. Plus, Israel’s most powerful allies in the US – Christian Zionist broadcasters.
According to Gaza’s government media office, Israel’s military has now killed 97 journalists in the Strip.
