“NOT a Journalist!” Israeli Strike Kills Al Jazeera Reporters | Scholars Debate Genocide

Aug 13, 2025 · 1h 02m

The killing of Al Jazeera’s Anas al-Sharif alongside six other journalists in a targeted Israeli strike has divided opinion across the world. The deliberate murder of journalists reporting on a conflict is a war crime. But Israel insists that al-Sharif was the head of a Hamas terrorist cell, a claim the UN, Foreign Press Association and major broadcasters say doesn’t have sufficient evidence to back it up. There is some evidence that al-Sharif was a former Hamas employee and, at some point, a supporter. But does this justify such a targeted attack in a conflict which much of the many journalists have simply not been allowed to see? Piers Morgan speaks to Al Jazeera 360 director Jamal Elshayyal and Middle East correspondent Jotam Confino.
