Prominent Palestinian activist Saleh al-Jafarawi, who was known for documenting Israel's genocidal war on Gaza, was killed late on Sunday whilst reporting on armed hostilities in Gaza City.
The 28-year-old was shot multiple times in the Sabra neighbourhood of Gaza City as he covered clashes between an Israel-backed entity and Hamas fighters.
Images shared online and seen by Middle East Eye showed Jafarawi's body moments after he was killed.
Al Jazeera reported that several displaced Palestinians were also killed during the clashes, and said that an "armed militia affiliated with the occupation [Israel]" was seeking to exploit the security vacuum in the city following Friday's historic announcement that Israel and Hamas had approved a deal to "end the war" and exchange prisoners.
"Every day is a new loss and a new goodbye, another sadness - even though the Israeli military has stopped this war but what is left from this army and the betrayal of some people," Mohamed Shahen, a Gaza-based journalist, said in reference to the Gaza gangs, as he shared a video of the lifeless body of the activist.
