When Ismail left, look, I filmed him. I filmed him, oh God and I said to him, ‘thank God for your safety, Ismail.’ Look at it here, look, look.

STORYLINE:
Al-Jazeera said two of its reporters were killed in an Israeli strike in northern Gaza Wednesday, the latest Palestinian journalists working with the Qatari network to be killed in the enclave.
Correspondent Ismail al-Ghoul, cameraman Rami al-Rifi and a child were killed in a blast that struck a car the trio were traveling in in Gaza City, according to the network and the Emergency and Ambulance Service, which helps recover and transport casualties to hospitals.
The two journalists were reporting at the Shati urban refugee camp, the birthplace of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh, who was killed in a strike while he was in Tehran, Iran.
The Israeli army has not immediately commented on the journalists’ deaths.
According to the Committee to Protect Journalists, 111 journalists, including 106 Palestinians, have been killed since the Israel-Hamas war erupted in October.
The Israeli government shut down Al-Jazeera in Israel in May through a new law that enables it to close down media outlets that are deemed a security threat.
Al-Jazeera, has accused Israel of targeting its journalists throughout the conflict.
In December, Samer Abudaqa, one of the network’s cameramen was killed in a strike. Wael Dahdouh, the outlet’s bureau chief in Gaza, was reporting in late October when he received word on air that his wife, daughter, a son and grandchild were killed in an Israeli airstrike. In January, a strike killed another of his sons, who was also working for Al-Jazeera.
