Today, Thursday, August 18, one hundred days have passed since the Israeli occupation forces assassinated Shireen Abu Akleh while she was on assignment in Jenin in the occupied West Bank.

Shireen was shot intentionally in the head on May 11.

She was wearing a visible vest marked: Press.

At her funeral, 70 Palestinians were wounded and more than 50 people were arrested according to the Palestinian Prisoner’s Club advocacy group.

To commemorate one hundred days since the assassination of Shireen Abu Akleh, Aljazeera Media Network is organising solidarity vigils at its headquarters in Doha and across its offices around the world in which Shireen’s colleagues will participate.

As part of its global campaign to bring to justice those responsible for the killing of Shireen and reveal the truth to the world, Aljazeera Media Network has mobilized international legal experts to submit a case file to the Office of the Prosecutor of the International Criminal Court in The Hague.

The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights has asked for a transparent, independent investigation.

“The cold-blooded assassination of Shireen Abu Akleh sparked international condemnation of the Israeli occupation forces’ attempts to silence the media by the killing of journalists.  Evidence has revealed the extent to which the Israeli occupation forces went in attempting to falsify the narrative in order to evade international censure and prosecution. Within the past one hundred days, all investigations reached the same conclusion: confirming the eyewitness accounts that Shireen Abu Akleh was killed by the Israeli occupation forces. Such conclusions reinforce the assertions of Aljazeera Media Network and the Abu Akleh family that Shireen was deliberately targeted by the Israeli occupation forces. Supported by these findings,” Aljazeera Media Network said in a statement on Wednesday.

“The Network calls on all international human rights and press freedom organizations, governments, journalists, and influencers to focus efforts on Thursday, August 18 by demanding justice for Shireen and accountability for her killers.

Al Jazeera Media Network renews its pledge to Shireen’s family and colleagues around the world, that it remains committed to her cause and relentless in its efforts to ensure justice for Shireen,” AJMN said.

On June 12, The Washington Post revealed that it ” examined more than five dozen videos, social media posts and photos of the event, conducted two physical inspections of the area and commissioned two independent acoustic analyses of the gunshots. That review suggests an Israeli soldier in the convoy likely shot and killed Abu Akleh. The Israel Defense Forces, or IDF, has said it is possible one of its soldiers fired the fatal shot but claimed any gunfire was directed toward a Palestinian gunman who was standing between the Israeli soldiers and the journalists, and that the reporters might have been shot unintentionally.”

The Washington Post added ” The audio analyses of the gunfire that likely killed Abu Akleh point to one person shooting from an estimated distance that nearly matches the span between the journalists and the IDF convoy. Based on video The Post filmed in Jenin, Abu Akleh and other journalists identified as press personnel would likely have been visible from the IDF convoy’s position, which was roughly 182 meters (597 feet) away. At least one soldier in the convoy was using a telescopic scope, the IDF said later in a news release. A live stream on TikTok filmed seven minutes before the shooting shows a relatively calm scene with people milling about. Distant single gunshots are heard on occasion but there are no signs of a firefight.”

On June 20, The New York Times said that  ” the bullet that killed Ms. Abu Akleh was fired from the approximate location of the Israeli military convoy, most likely by a soldier from an elite unit.”

“The Times’ investigation reconstructed the moments leading up to Ms. Abu Akleh’s killing, using video collected from bystanders, journalists and security cameras, interviews with seven witnesses as well as the Israeli military’s accounts, audio analysis from experts and four site visits by Times reporters,” the paper said.
