Jafarawi had previously spoken publicly about receiving repeated threats from the 'Israeli' forces and being placed on targeting lists due to his journalistic work.

Following news of his death, several Hebrew-language media outlets reported on the incident in a celebratory tone, recalling past campaigns that accused him of “fabricating news” or engaging in “propaganda.”

Despite these accusations, Jafarawi remained committed to documenting the harsh realities and suffering of Gaza’s civilians during the prolonged aggression. His death highlights the ongoing risks faced by journalists reporting in Gaza, even in the wake of a fragile ceasefire.
