Downing Street has said it is “gravely concerned” about the killing of five journalists in Gaza by the Israel Defense Forces.

The Al-Jazeera employees died following a targeted air strike near Gaza City’s al-Shifa Hospital on Sunday.

They included Anas al-Sharif, one of the broadcaster’s most prominent journalists who has reported from Gaza throughout the war.
