The eldest son of Al Jazeera’s Gaza bureau chief has been killed in an Israeli strike in southern Gaza.

Hamza al-Dahdouh, an Al Jazeera network journalist and cameraman, was with other journalists on a road between Khan Younis and Rafah when a drone strike hit.

Freelance journalist Mustafa Thuraya was also killed.

Four other members of bureau chief Wael al-Dahdouh’s family were also killed in October.

His wife Amna, his grandchild Adam, his 15-year-old son Mahmoud and seven-year-old daughter Sham all died in an Israeli strike.

      If you ask me, no coincidence. According to source OP provided, huge number of those “journalists” were employed by Hamas and IDF said they will kill all of Hamas. Kind of what was expected to happen.

        So where is the proof that they were actually Hamas? Because you just stated that you believe IDF’s propaganda? Or are all journalists critical to Israel now also designated Hamas fighters?
