In short:

Five Al Jazeera staff, including well-known Arabic correspondent Anas al-Sharif, have been killed in a targeted Israeli air strike in Gaza.

Israel's military said it had struck an Al Jazeera correspondent in Gaza, calling him a "terrorist" who "posed as a journalist", as the Qatar-based broadcaster announced his death along with three other staff.

A press freedom group and a UN expert previously warned that Anas al-Sharif's life was in danger due to his reporting from Gaza.
