Gaza Strip: Israeli occupation forces Monday April 07, 2025 bombed a tent housing Palestinian journalists, killing two and wounding nine others while burning them alive.

Nine journalists injured in the attack near Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in southern Gaza are Ahmed Mansour, Hassan Eslaih, Ahmed Al-Agha, Mohammad Fayek, Abdallah Al-Attar, Ihab Al-Bardini, Mahmoud Awad, Majed Qdeih, and Ali Eslaih, according to Quds News Network.

At least two of the wounded journalists are in critical condition, one of them with severe burns and the other with a head injury from shrapnel, the network said in a report yesterday.

In the disturbing footage circulating on social media, journalist Ahmed Mansout can be seen consumed by fire as people and rescue workers tried desperately to put it out. Mansour is a father and a journalist for Palestine Today.

“(Israeli) Missiles burned Colleague Ahmed Mansour and is still in intensive care, suffering from severe burns as a result of the targeting of the tent where he is sitting in the journalists’ camp at Nasser Hospital,” Wael Abo Omar, a Palestinian journalist in the blockaded enclave, said on X.

Journalist Helmi al-Faq’awi was tragically killed in the horrific Israeli attack along with another man, Yousef al-Khuzendar.

Mansour succumbed to his injuries

Mahmoud Bassam, a photojournalist based in Gaza, said Mansour “needs a miracle” to recover from the severe burns. Shockingly, Mansour succumbed to his injuries Tuesday April 08, 2025.

Ahmed Mansour is the 211th media worker killed during Israel’s war on Gaza, according to the Gaza’s Government Media Office.

In a statement released today, the Gaza Media Office urged global support for Palestinian journalists following Israel’s deadly raid on the media tent early yesterday morning.

“We call on the International Federation of Journalists, the Federation of Arab Journalists, and all journalistic bodies in all countries of the world to condemn these systematic crimes against Palestinian journalists and media professionals in the Gaza Strip,” the office said.
