A Palestinian journalist has been killed in an Israeli attack in the Gaza Strip, according to media reports Tuesday.
Another journalist was injured in the drone strike in Khan Younis in the south of the territory, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.
An Israeli army spokesperson said on request that the armed forces were investigating the report.
According to WAFA, the journalist killed was named as Mahmoud Wadi. Local media reports said that he had used a drone camera in his work for various media outlets.
The Committee to Protect Journalists (CPJ) says that more than 200 journalists have been killed in the Gaza Strip since the start of the conflict more than two years ago.
A ceasefire between Israel and the Palestinian militant organization Hamas has been in place since October 10, but fatal incidents continue to occur.
Israel has repeatedly accused journalists in the Gaza Strip of working for the Hamas.
