Al Jazeera correspondent Shireen Abu Akleh was shot dead by the Israeli army in May 2022. She was wearing a jacket that read "Press," while covering an Israeli attack on Jenin.

The FBI investigation launched by the US Federal Bureau of Investigation is still pending a year after the incident. Israeli officials quickly closed the case and refrained from bringing any charges in the case of the American-Palestinian journalist's murder. The Intercept criticized the US administration's handling of the murder of the Al Jazeera correspondent.
