Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni condemned the killing of six journalists in an Israeli airstrike targeting the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis.
"We condemn the unjustifiable killing of journalists in Gaza, an unacceptable attack on press freedom and on all those who courageously risk their lives to report the drama of war," she said.
The deaths of the six journalists brings the total number killed to 246, according to Gaza's Ministry of Health.
The Israeli military confirmed it had targeted the area and announced on Tuesday that "six of those killed in the incident were terrorists," following a preliminary investigation ordered by the chief of staff.
