Israeli Airstrike kills Palestinian Journalist along with Her 6 Children
DaysofPal- The Palestinian journalist Walaa Al-Jaabari was killed in an Israeli airstrike targeting her apartment in Tel Al-Hawa neighborhood in southwestern Gaza City. The strike also killed her husband and six children at once.
Medical sources said that Israeli warplanes struck the apartment belonging to the Al-Sha'er family near Al-Falah Mosque, resulting in the deaths of seven family members, including children and the pregnant mother, while 8 others were injured and rushed to nearby hospitals for treatment.
The confirmed casualties include Amjad Al-Sha'er, Walaa Al-Jaabari, Fadi Al-Sha'er, children Hassan, Ezz Al-Din, Mira, Amir Al-Sha'er, and an unborn baby who died in the womb of his mother.
Rescue teams pulled the victims from the rubble of the destroyed apartment, located west of the Gaza Radio and Television building in Tel Al-Hawa.
The strike has left the neighborhood in shock and mourning.
Walaa Al-Jaabari was a prominent local journalist recognized for her contributions to Palestinian media. In contrast, her death marks a tragic addition to the growing number of journalists targeted in the ongoing Israeli assault on Gaza.
The Israeli occupation army continues its relentless air campaign across the Gaza Strip, resulting in mounting casualties and worsening humanitarian conditions.
International organizations have repeatedly called for an immediate halt to the violence and the lifting of the blockade to alleviate the suffering of Gaza's civilian population.
