Israel Kills Journalist Moataz Rajab, at Least the 221st Media Worker Killed in Genocide

HeadlineMay 29, 2025

Israeli attacks so far today have killed at least 55 people across Gaza. Among the dead is Palestinian journalist Moataz Rajab, who was killed along with four other civilians in an Israeli strike on his vehicle in Gaza City. He’s at least the 221st media worker killed by Israel in Gaza since October 2023.

Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his forces had killed Hamas commander Mohammed Sinwar. He was apparently the target of a May 13 strike in Khan Younis, when Israeli warplanes simultaneously dropped six large bombs on the European Hospital. Twenty-eight people were killed and dozens more wounded in that attack.
