The Associated Press and Reuters have demanded accountability from the Israeli army over a deadly air strike on a hospital in southern Gaza that killed 20 people, among them five journalists, including three working for the two news agencies. In a joint letter to Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and senior officials on Tuesday, AP Executive Editor Julie Pace and Reuters Editor-in-Chief Alessandra Galloni said they were “outraged” that independent journalists were among those killed in Monday’s strike on the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Younis, a civilian facility protected under international law.
