Palestinian journalist Anas Al-Sharif, 28, was targeted in an Israeli strike that also killed three other Al Jazeera journalists. Al-Sharif’s reporting focused on the human cost of Israel’s occupation and his advocacy for press freedom helped to amplify the stories of Palestinians. His colleague described him as a “mentor” who had inspired a young journalist with his dedication to telling the world about life in Gaza. The Israeli government had targeted Al-Sharif, fearing he would continue to expose their actions, including accusations that he was a Hamas operative.
