THIS IS A LOOK FROM SAN FRANCISCO THIS WEEKEND. AMANDA HARRY SPOKE TO SOMEONE WHO LOST A LOVED ONE WHILE REPORTING IN THE WEST BANK. >>> IT IS AN ONGOING, INTENTIONAL TARGETING OF JOURNALISTS. >> Reporter: THE LOSS OF LIFE IN THE WEST BANK, CONTINUES TO BE FELT AROUND THE WORLD . ACCORDING TO GAZA'S GOVERNMENT MEDIA OFFICE, MORE THAN 140 JOURNALISTS HAVE BEEN KILLED SINCE THE CONFLICT STARTED ON OCTOBER 7th. FOR JENNIFER ZECHARIAH, SHE SAID JOURNALISTS HAVE BEEN TARGETED FOR MUCH LONGER THAN THAT. HER COUSIN, WAS KILLED TWO YEARS AGO. >> SHE WAS HARD-WORKING. HONEST. VERY COMPASSIONATE. FUNNY. VERY FUNNY. SHE HAD A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOR. SHE REALLY CARED ABOUT EVERY STORY SHE DID. SHE INVESTIGATED IT AND SHE LEARNED EVERYTHING SHE COULD. >> Reporter: SHE WAS AN AMERICAN CITIZEN, COVERING NEWS IN THE WEST BANK. SHE WAS REPORTING A STORY WHEN SHE WAS SHOT AND KILLED. >> SHE WAS WITH HER COLLEAGUES IN FULL PRESS GEAR WALKING DOWN THE STREET. THERE WAS NO FIGHTING OR ANYTHING. THEY WENT TOWARDS THE MILITARY VEHICLES TO IDENTIFY THEMSELVES AND AS THEY WERE WALKING BACK, HER COLLEAGUE WAS SHOT AND THEN SHE WAS SHOT. BY A SNIPER, IN BETWEEN HER PRESS JACKET AND HER PRESS SUMMIT. >> Reporter: ZACHARIAS HUNDRED COUSIN WAS A WELL-KNOWN JOURNALIST AND BELIEVES HER DEATH WAS TARGETED. AS SHE CONTINUES TO BE TARGETED AFTER HER DEATH. >> THEY ATTACKED THE PALLBEARERS AND BEAT THEM SO BADLY WITH BATONS THEY ALMOST DROPPED THE CASKET. THAT SHE WAS IN. AND HER FAMILY WAS AFRAID THEY WOULD TAKE THE BODY BECAUSE THE ISRAELIS HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO TAKE PALESTINIAN BODIES THAT HOLD ONTO THEM. MAC >> Reporter: IS ONE OF THE ORGANIZERS . SHE SAID SHE WANTS TO CREATE A SPACE FOR PEOPLE TO GRIEVE , ON THE ANNIVERSARY OF HER DEATH. AS WELL AS ALL THE OTHER JOURNALISTS, WHO HAVE DIED. >> THIS IS UNPRECEDENTED. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED IN MY LIFETIME. THIS IS MORE JOURNALISTS THAT WERE KILLED IN THE SECOND WORLD WAR. >> Reporter: SHE SAID DURING THIS CONFLICT IS EXACTLY THE TIME JOURNALISTS ARE MOST NEEDED.
