The family had been sheltering there after being displaced by the ongoing conflict.

The Palestinian Journalists Syndicate condemned the killings, stating that they added to Israel’s “abysmal record” of violence against members of the press. Their deaths brought the number of Palestinian journalists killed in Gaza since October 7, 2023, to 231, according to official figures. The Committee to Protect Journalists puts the toll at 178: 176 Palestinians and two Israelis.

Al-Adlouni's death underscores the extreme risks faced by journalists reporting in conflict zones, where even areas designated as safe can become targets.
