LONDON: Palestinian journalist and social media personality Saleh Al-Jafarawi was killed on Sunday while reporting on fighting between armed groups in Gaza City’s volatile Sabra neighborhood.

Footage circulated online showed his body clad in a press vest.

Multiple sources report that Al-Jafarawi, 28, was shot dead during clashes involving the Doghmush clan militia and Hamas fighters, though accounts of the incident vary and local authorities have not confirmed details.

According to local reports, Gaza’s Interior Ministry has launched an investigation and is pursuing those believed to be responsible.

The Doghmush family, long prominent in Gaza, has a complicated and sometimes tense relationship with Hamas.
