A second journalist has died under suspicious circumstances while covering the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, The Gulf Times reported. Khalid al-Misslam, a Qatari photojournalist for Al Kass TV, died suddenly while covering the FIFA World Cup in Qatar, according to the Times. His death came into the limelight shortly after the sudden passing of Grant Wahl, a soccer journalist covering his eighth World Cup.

The Times tweeted about the passing on December 10, expressing "We believe in Allah's mercy and forgiveness for him." Very few details about Misslam's death are available, with little-to-no information about his death covered by the local media.
