Three Palestinian journalists, one of them a contributor to the French news agency AFP, were killed Wednesday in an IDF strike in central Gaza . The military said its forces identified several suspects operating a drone linked to Hamas in an area that posed a threat to troops. Immediately after the identification, and in light of the danger, the IDF “carried out a targeted strike against the suspects who were operating the drone,” it said. The case was reported by several international media outlets, including The New York Times. According to Palestinian sources, the three journalists killed were Mohammed Salah Kashta, Abed al-Raouf Shaat and Anas Ranim.
