Martyrs of continuous and courageous coverage: Al Jazeera director general
Below is an internal email sent to staff by Dr. Mostefa Souag, director general of the Al Jazeera Media Network, about the latest killing of Al Jazeera journalists by Israeli forces in the besieged Gaza Strip:
Dear Colleagues,
On August 10, 2025, our colleagues Anas al-Sharif, Mohammed Qreiqeh, Ibrahim Zaher, and Mohamed Noufal were assassinated in cold blood by the Israeli occupation forces.

They were carrying out their duties as journalists, making this another deliberate and blatant Israeli attack on freedom of the press.
This attack comes amid the horrific humanitarian catastrophe that the Israeli assault on Gaza is causing, resulting in the massacres of civilians, forced starvation, and wholesale destruction of entire communities.

The journalists’ killers – the Israeli army, as per an official statement it made – targeted the tent where they were staying that was stationed opposite al-Shifa Medical Complex in Gaza.
Ordering the killing of Anas al-Sharif, one of Gaza’s bravest journalists, and his colleagues is a desperate attempt to silence the voice of truth before the implementation of the plot to invade Gaza.
