Original Note:
This is a baseless claim by the IDF. Journalists are protected under: UNESCO Resolution 29, 1997 UN Security Council Resolution 1738, 2006 Medellin Declaration, 4 May 2007 and various other laws. Hence, the IDF just amditted to targeting journalists, which is a war crime. https://guide-humanitarian-law.org/content/article/3/journalists/
