Gaza toll climbs to nine as Israeli strikes claim civilian lives and a journalist

Israeli airstrikes and gunfire across Gaza killed at least nine people, including a child and Al Jazeera cameraman Ahmed Wishah, with strikes hitting Gaza City, Beit Lahiya, Khan Younis and the Bureij refugee camp. Gaza health officials say more than 1,010 Palestinians have died since the October ceasefire, while Israel says it targets militants. Al Jazeera condemned Wishah’s death, raising the network’s toll of journalists killed in Gaza since Oct 2023 to 12, as diplomacy over the Gaza plan stalls and mediators push for the next phase.

Al Jazeera Journalist's Son Among Fatalities in Israeli Strike on Gaza

Two Palestinian freelance journalists, Hamza Al-Dahdouh and Mustafa Thuraya, were killed in an Israeli air strike in Gaza, with a third journalist wounded. Al Jazeera, for whom Al-Dahdouh had worked, condemned the attack as deliberate and called for accountability. The Israel Defence Forces have not commented on this specific incident but previously stated they do not target journalists intentionally. The ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict has resulted in the deaths of numerous journalists, with the latest incident raising the Gaza government's count to 109 media workers killed.

"Journalist Hamza al-Dahdouh Among Fatalities in Gaza Conflict"

Hamza al-Dahdouh, the son of Al Jazeera's Gaza bureau chief and an Al Jazeera journalist himself, was killed in an Israeli drone strike while reporting in a "humanitarian zone" in Gaza. The strike also killed freelance journalist Mustafa Thuraya and occurred despite the area having been designated for safety by the Israeli army. This incident adds to the previous loss experienced by the al-Dahdouh family, as four other family members were killed in an earlier strike. The Al Jazeera network broadcasted the aftermath of the attack and the emotional scene of Wael al-Dahdouh mourning his son. The IDF has been contacted for comment, and the death toll among journalists in Gaza has risen to over 75 since the conflict began.
