Freelance cameraman for Anadolu Agency (AA) in Gaza, Said Abu Nebhan, was killed on Jan. 10, marked as Working Journalists’ Day in Turkey, during an attack by Israeli forces using long-range weapons.

The Israeli army targeted an area in the Al-Jadid Refugee Camp in Nuseirat, located in central Gaza Strip, where numerous journalists were present. After surrounding the area, they opened fire on those inside.

Footage from the scene shows a wounded individual being hurriedly carried on a stretcher by aid workers. Nearby, Abu Nebhan was seen running with his equipment, covering the incident, when he was struck by gunfire, seemingly from long-range weapons. He collapsed and lay motionless moments later, as those around him hesitated to approach due to fear of being targeted themselves.

The Palestinian official news agency WAFA confirmed Abu Nebhan's death in their report.

In a related incident, Israeli warplanes conducted an airstrike in Gaza’s Shujaiyya neighborhood, hitting a residential building. At least one person was killed, with casualties taken to Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital for treatment.

With Abu Nebhan’s death, the number of journalists killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza since Oct. 7, 2023, has risen to 203.

Since then, as a result of Israel's genocide in Gaza, at least 46,006 Palestinians have been killed, including 17,841 children and 12,298 women, with 109,378 people injured.
