The work they were murdered for doing, journalism:

"Rule 34. Civilian journalists engaged in professional missions in areas of armed conflict must be respected and protected as long as they are not taking a direct part in hostilities" (journalism is NOT "taking direct part in hostilities" by any definition)

"Democratic Autonomous Administration of North and East Syria condemned the cowardly crime committed by the Turkish occupying state"

This is a continuation of Turkey's clear intentional and systematic past targeting of several journalists for working in the armed conflict area, similar to how it has been bombing mosques, water treatment plants, electricity generation, UN-affiliated school, hospitals, etc, etc.
