The number of martyred journalists in Gaza has risen to 228 since the beginning of the genocide, following the martyrdom of journalist Ismail Abu Hatab, the Government Media Office in the Palestinian enclave announced on Monday.
According to the statement, Abu Hatab worked with multiple media outlets and platforms and held several photographic exhibitions outside of Palestine, aimed at showcasing the 'catastrophic reality' in the Gaza Strip.
The Government Media Office strongly condemned "Israel's" 'systematic targeting, killing, and assassination of Palestinian journalists,' calling on the International Federation of Journalists, the Federation of Arab Journalists, and all press unions and media bodies worldwide to denounce these systematic crimes against journalists in Gaza.

It urged the international community, global organizations, and all entities related to journalism and media to 'condemn the occupation's crimes, deter it, and pursue it in international courts.'
The statement also called on these bodies to 'exert serious and effective pressure to stop the genocide, protect journalists and media workers in Gaza, and put an end to their targeted killings and assassinations.'
Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation military intensified on Monday its assault on Gaza City in the northern part of the Strip, committing multiple massacres that left dozens of martyrs and wounded, including women and children.

It rewards Hamas terror, hardens Hamas's refusal to free the hostages, emboldens those who menace French Jews and encourages the Jew-hatred now stalking your streets," Netanyahu wrote in the letter.
