The year 2024 marked a grim milestone for journalists around the world, with at least 124 media staff killed across 18 countries, according to analysis by the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ). This figure passes the previous record in 2007 when 113 journalists were killed, the majority of those deaths happening during the height of the Iraq War.
Unsurprisingly, one conflict stood out in the latest report: Gaza. About 70 per cent of journalist deaths worldwide in 2024 occurred in the besieged Palestinian enclave.
Journalists at risk in conflicts
In the past five years, the number of armed conflicts has doubled around the world, with much of the violence concentrated in the Middle East. This surge is reflected in the sharp increase in journalist deaths, particularly in Gaza, Sudan, Lebanon and Syria.
The CPJ’s database records the death of a journalist when there are reasonable grounds to believe it was linked to their work. These killings fall into three categories – accidental deaths in conflict zones, casualties sustained during dangerous assignments, and assassinations over reporting. At least 24 journalists were confirmed to have been deliberately attacked in 2024, a figure the CPJ warns could rise as investigations continue.
It classifies these killings as murders. Israel was responsible for the vast majority of killings classified as murders in 2024.
Deliberate attacks on journalists
Among the most high-profile cases was the killing of Palestinian journalist Ismail Al Ghoul, 27. He was killed alongside his colleague, Rami Al Rifi, in July in an Israeli drone strike on their car. Israel previously made unsubstantiated claims that Al Ghoul’s colleague, Hamza Al Dahdouh, was a terrorist, an accusation strongly denied by his family and employer, Al Jazeera.
Wael Al Dahdouh, Hamza’s father and Gaza bureau chief for Al Jazeera, had lost four family members in Israeli attacks and had been attacked several times himself. The CPJ is investigating 20 cases in which journalists may have been the targets of Israeli strikes, which would constitute war crimes under international law.
The CPJ confirmed the killings in Lebanon of media workers Wissam Kassem, Ghassan Najjar and Mohammed Reda in an Israeli air strike. The youngest journalist killed in 2024 was Palestinian freelance photographer Al Hassan Hamad, 18, who died in a drone strike on October 6.
In Sudan, nearly two years of civil war have left tens of thousands dead and millions displaced. The CPJ confirmed that three journalists were killed in connection with their work, while the motive for a fourth death is under investigation.
Why are journalists protected under international law?
Under international humanitarian law, journalists are considered civilians and must not be targets for attacks in armed conflicts. The Geneva Conventions and their additional protocols provide explicit protections for journalists working in war zones. Attacking a journalist is considered a war crime under the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court.
The principle of press freedom is also enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, which recognise the essential role of journalists in providing independent information during conflicts.
Despite these protections, it has become increasingly difficult to hold those responsible to account. While international legal mechanisms exist, accountability for the killings of journalists is rare. Press advocacy groups, including the CPJ and Reporters Without Borders, continue to push for more substantial legal consequences for those who attack journalists.

Tips to stay safe during hot weather
- Stay hydrated: Drink plenty of fluids, especially water. Avoid alcohol and caffeine, which can increase dehydration.
- Seek cool environments: Use air conditioning, fans, or visit community spaces with climate control.
- Limit outdoor activities: Avoid strenuous activity during peak heat. If outside, seek shade and wear a wide-brimmed hat.
- Dress appropriately: Wear lightweight, loose and light-coloured clothing to facilitate heat loss.
- Check on vulnerable people: Regularly check in on elderly neighbours, young children and those with health conditions.
- Home adaptations: Use blinds or curtains to block sunlight, avoid using ovens or stoves, and ventilate living spaces during cooler hours.
- Recognise heat illness: Learn the signs of heat exhaustion and heat stroke (dizziness, confusion, rapid pulse, nausea), and seek medical attention if symptoms occur.

10 tips for entry-level job seekers
- Have an up-to-date, professional LinkedIn profile. If you don’t have a LinkedIn account, set one up today. Avoid poor-quality profile pictures with distracting backgrounds. Include a professional summary and begin to grow your network.
- Keep track of the job trends in your sector through the news. Apply for job alerts at your dream organisations and the types of jobs you want – LinkedIn uses AI to share similar relevant jobs based on your selections.
- Double check that you’ve highlighted relevant skills on your resume and LinkedIn profile.
- For most entry-level jobs, your resume will first be filtered by an applicant tracking system for keywords. Look closely at the description of the job you are applying for and mirror the language as much as possible (while being honest and accurate about your skills and experience).
- Keep your CV professional and in a simple format – make sure you tailor your cover letter and application to the company and role.
- Go online and look for details on job specifications for your target position. Make a list of skills required and set yourself some learning goals to tick off all the necessary skills one by one.
- Don’t be afraid to reach outside your immediate friends and family to other acquaintances and let them know you are looking for new opportunities.
- Make sure you’ve set your LinkedIn profile to signal that you are “open to opportunities”. Also be sure to use LinkedIn to search for people who are still actively hiring by searching for those that have the headline “I’m hiring” or “We’re hiring” in their profile.
- Prepare for online interviews using mock interview tools. Even before landing interviews, it can be useful to start practising.
- Be professional and patient. Always be professional with whoever you are interacting with throughout your search process, this will be remembered. You need to be patient, dedicated and not give up on your search. Candidates need to make sure they are following up appropriately for roles they have applied.

Salman Khan’s father, Salim Khan, is one of Bollywood’s most legendary screenwriters. Through his partnership with co-writer Javed Akhtar, Salim is credited with having paved the path for the Indian film industry’s blockbuster format in the 1970s. Something his son now rules the roost of. More importantly, the Salim-Javed duo also created the persona of the “angry young man” for Bollywood megastar Amitabh Bachchan in the 1970s, reflecting the angst of the average Indian. In choosing to be the ordinary man’s “hero” as opposed to a thespian in new Bollywood, Salman Khan remains tightly linked to his father’s oeuvre. Thanks dad.
