• They're attacking one of the most densely populated areas in the world

• They're committing a genocide - when they want to wipe out the entire population, journalists are going to get killed in their indiscriminate attacks.

They're far-right too, so they're a half-step from flat out executing dissenting journalists (and how are journalists in Palestine likely to be aligned?).
