Three Palestinian journalists were killed early Tuesday in an Israeli air strike that hit a residential building near Gaza City’s fishing port, a media union and an official said. The journalists’ syndicate announced “the martyrdom of three journalists in the Gaza Strip in the ongoing Israeli aggression”. The head of Gaza’s Hamas-run government’s media office, Salameh Maarouf, identified the three as Said al-Taweel, Mohammed Sobboh and Hisham Nawajhah.
