The Foreign Ministry has responded to widespread criticism following a military strike in Gaza that killed Anas al-Sharif, a well-known journalist for a major news network. International organizations and several countries have condemned the incident, highlighting concerns about the safety of journalists in conflict zones and accusing Israel of targeting media personnel. In its statement, the ministry asserted that individuals involved in militant activities who carry cameras should not be considered journalists, emphasizing its commitment to pursuing those it identifies as threats. The military maintains that al-Sharif was leading a militant cell and facilitating attacks, while the strike also reportedly resulted in the deaths of additional media workers and civilians.
