Son of Al Jazeera bureau chief Wael al-Dahdouh killed in Gaza - BBC News



The eldest son of Al Jazeera's Gaza bureau chief Wael al-Dahdouh 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.

Four other members of the bureau chief's family, including wife Amna, grandchild Adam, 15-year-old son Mahmoud and seven-year-old daughter Sham also died in an Israeli strike in October.

The Hamas-run health ministry says more than 22,000 people have been killed in Gaza since the war started.
