Al Jazeera correspondent Sherine Abu Aqla was killed by the Israeli Occupation Forces

In a blatant murder, violating international laws and norms, the Israeli Occupation Forces assassinated in cold blood Al Jazeera’s correspondent in Palestine, Sherine Abu Aqla, targeting her with live fire early this morning, Wednesday, May 11, 2022, while conducting her journalistic duty, clearly wearing press jacket that identifies her a journalist, covering the Israeli Occupation Forces storming of Jenin refugee camp in the West Bank. 
 
Al Jazeera Media Network condemns this heinous crime, which intends to only prevent the media from conducting their duty. Al Jazeera holds the Israeli government and the occupation forces responsible for the killing of the late colleague Sherine. It also calls on the international community to condemn and hold the Israeli occupation forces accountable for their intentional targeting and killing of Shireen.
 
The Israeli authorities are also responsible for the targeting of Al Jazeera producer Ali Al-Samudi, who was also shot him in the back while covering the same event, and he is currently undergoing treatment.
 
Al Jazeera extends its sincere condolences to the family of Sherine in Palestine, and to her extended family around the world, and we pledge to prosecute the perpetrators legally, no matter how hard they try to cover up their crime and bring them to justice.
