Скачать или смотреть Journalists killed in Israeli strike leave a void in coverage of Gaza war

The Israeli military said in a statement on Tuesday that a double-strike on a hospital in the Gaza strip was targeting what they believed to be a Hamas surveillance camera, as well as what it believed were people identified as militants.

The Israeli strike on Monday — called a "double tap" because it hit the same spot twice — killed at least 20 people, including five journalists and medics who had rushed to the scene after the first strike. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called the attack a "tragic mishap."

Among those killed was Mariam Dagga. She was 33 years old, a mom to her 13-year-old son and — through her work as a visual journalist with the Associated Press — the eyes and ears on the ground in Gaza for news outlets around the world.
