Four journalists were among at least 20 people killed by Israeli strikes on al-Nasser hospital in southern Gaza, health officials said. The strikes on Monday killed Hussam al-Masri, who worked for Reuters, Mariam Abu Dagga, who worked for the Associated Press, the Al Jazeera journalist Mohammed Salam, and Moaz Abu Taha from NBC. Another Reuters journalist, Hatem Khaled, was also wounded in the attack. A video from the news agency al-Ghad TV showed civil defence workers wearing bright orange vests and journalists being hit by a bomb while they were attempting to rescue the body of al-Masri, who was killed in an earlier strike on the fourth floor of the hospital. In the moments before their deaths, they raised their hands to shield themselves, but were killed by the explosion. View image in fullscreen Mariam Abu Dagga pictured in Khan Younis in June.
