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.

    For everyone who thinks that this might be just an accident. I don’t think so. They are deliberately targeting journalists who are critical to them.
