The Al Jazeera Media Network has condemned on Wednesday an Israeli attack that killed the family of one of its journalists in the besieged Gaza Strip.
The network said the Israeli strike killed 22 family members of its Arabic correspondent in Gaza Moamen Al Sharafi.
Al Sharafi's father, mother, and 20 other family members were killed in an Israeli bombing targeting the Jabalia camp.
The network said that days before, his mother had sent him a message hoping they would see each other soon.
Al Jazeera said in a statement that it intends to take legal measures to hold Israel accountable for its crimes against journalists.
It also called on the international community and organisations defending the rights of journalists to work on putting an end to "the massacres" as soon as possible.
Since Israel began bombarding Gaza almost two months ago, journalists and filmmakers in the Palestinian enclave had persevered through communications blackouts, relentless airstrikes and deep personal loss to document the devastation, sharing content through various social media platforms.
Hamza El Dahdouh, who lost his mother and siblings in an Israeli airstrike in October and is the son of Al Jazeera correspondent Wael El Dahdouh, questioned the world's inaction despite the continuous stream of information on what i s happening in Gaza.
"Fifty-eight days of documenting and publishing everything that happens to try to convince the world that what is happening is a crime and genocide against civilians and no one moved. Do you need another 58 days to confirm?" Dahdouh said on Monday.
Dozens of journalists have been killed since the onslaught on Gaza began on 7 October, including 56 Palestinians and three Lebanese.
An Amnesty International statement on Thursday said that Israeli strikes which killed Reuters journalist Issam Abdallah and injured six others in south Lebanon on 13 October were likely a direct attack on civilians that must be investigated as a war crime.
Human Rights Watch, in a separate statement, said the two Israeli strikes were "an apparently deliberate attack on civilians and thus a war crime".
A Reuters investigation published on Thursday found an Israeli tank crew killed Abdallah and wounded the six other reporters by firing two shells in quick succession from Israel while the journalists were filming cross-border shelling from a distance.
