In a press release saying the killing of al-Sharif, Israel’s navy accused the journalist of heading a Hamas cell and of “advancing rocket assaults towards Israeli civilians and [Israeli] troops.”

It alleged it possessed paperwork offering “unequivocal proof” of his involvement with the Palestinian group.

Muhammed Shehada, an analyst on the Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor, stated there was “zero proof” that al-Sharif took half in any hostilities. “His complete day by day routine was standing in entrance of a digicam from morning to night,” he instructed Al Jazeera.

The Al Jazeera Media Community had not too long ago denounced the Israeli navy for what it known as a “campaign of incitement” towards its reporters within the Gaza Strip, together with most notably al-Sharif.

In July, Israeli military spokesperson Avichai Adraee reshared a video on social media accusing al-Sharif of being a member of Hamas’s navy wing – a declare that has been forcefully rejected as false.
