Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) early report documenting the killing of journalists during the first 10 weeks of the War on Gaza, which CPJ described at the time as the deadliest single period for journalists in any conflict in recent CPJ history. The report recorded 68 journalists killed in the first 10 weeks, 61 of them Palestinian, and documented patterns including the targeting of journalists' family members, communications blackouts preventing coverage, and evidence of direct targeting of media workers. It is recommended for media researchers and press freedom advocates who need early documentation of the pattern of journalist killing in Gaza. This early CPJ report is particularly valuable for establishing the pattern of targeting from the earliest weeks of the War on Gaza.
