      Well if you consider how many journalists die in Gaza in comparison to other conflicts maybe it is dangerous? But not because of the war itself

      They’re more worried about covering up their troops accidentally murdering war correspondents because it’s hard to blame it on “crossfire” when there’s only one side actively murdering people.
