The article delves into the IDF's "Journalist Files" list, which includes 170 Palestinian journalists and media workers killed in Gaza and designated as "terrorists." It presents a series of cases where the evidence is scant, unverified, or contradicts Israeli claims. Among others, it features the story of Omar Abd Rabbo, a Palestinian known in Gaza as an opponent of Hamas, whose brother Mohammed is on the list despite a lack of evidence. The article points to 59 journalists whose dedicated pages contain no supporting evidence or documents. It also highlights discrepancies between military claims and documents, undated or processed documents, and photographs that do not necessarily indicate membership in an armed organization. The article notes that only 78 of the 170 names appear in the Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) database, raising questions about the list's credibility and the justification for the killings.
