Did you even open the article? Just read the first paragraph.

Today, Al-Jazeera Bureau Chief Wael El-Dahdouh was reporting live in Gaza when an Israeli airstrike killed his wife and two children. Now, other journalists also fear their families could be targeted solely for them doing their job.

Have you even read my post?
It's not about whether guy's family died at all but wether his family was specifically targeted and wither the motive was to scare jurnalists.

You said "most people here read it as fact that Israel tarteted his family" I'm saying well yeah the article stated it as fact that they targeted his family I just want to know if that is likely or not because to me it seems far fetched.

Yeah, that's what I'm saying. It makes less sense they specifically targeted random journalist family than the version that his family was killed by being at the place that was shelled. It sad nevertheless, though.
