CPJ reclassifies 19 Gaza deaths: journalists were militants

The Committee to Protect Journalists revised its casualty list, determining that 19 Palestinians initially reported as journalists killed by Israeli forces were actually militants or combat participants. Despite this, CPJ maintains that Israeli forces are responsible for most journalist killings globally since 2023, with 191 Palestinian media workers now listed. The revision clarifies the status of some victims but does not alter the broader pattern of high journalist casualties in Gaza.
