Number of journalists killed in Gaza rises to 190, media office says

Gaza’s Government Media Office has identified the latest journalist killed in an Israeli attack on the enclave as Alaa Fawzi Barhoum. It said Barhoum worked as a news editor for multiple media outlets.

The office said in a statement it “condemns in the strongest terms the targeting, killing and assassination of Palestinian journalists” by Israeli forces. It called on the international community to hold the Israeli government accountable and to pressure it into halting its “genocide” in Gaza.

Israeli forces kill pregnant woman in Jabalia refugee camp

We know from civilians in the north that the situation for them has reached a critical point where a residential building has been targeted and there are lots of families buried under the debris that cannot be easily removed due to the lack of essential Civil Defence services.

One of the latest Israeli attacks on Jabalia refugee camp targeted a group of civilians where we got confirmation from Al-Awda Hospital saying that a pregnant woman was killed in that attack while five others have arrived at the hospital in critical condition.

The facility of Kamal Adwan Hospital has been an active area for Israeli attacks in the past couple of hours, where two Palestinians have been confirmed killed, while here, in the central areas of Gaza, people have been under constant threat of Israeli drones.

A Doctor's Testimony: The Reality of Gaza's Suffering by Dr. Tanya Haj Hassan

Dr. Tanya Haj Hassan, a pediatric intensive care doctor with Medical Aid for Palestinians (MAP), shared a harrowing account of her experiences working in Gaza, where she bore witness to the devastating humanitarian crisis. She described the systematic targeting of civilians, healthcare workers, and infrastructure, emphasizing the unimaginable toll on Palestinian lives. Through poignant stories of patients and colleagues, she highlighted the loss of entire families, the suffering of children, and the resilience of healthcare workers who continue to serve despite constant threats and personal losses. Dr. Haj Hassan detailed how hospitals have become targets of military strikes and described the horrors of forced displacement, deprivation, and the relentless psychological and physical toll on Gaza's population.

She called for urgent global action, stating that silence in the face of such atrocities perpetuates impunity and signals the erosion of humanitarian law. Dr. Haj Hassan urged the international community to move beyond pity and praise, offering meaningful solidarity and tangible support for Palestinians. Citing the courage of healthcare workers in Gaza as an inspiring model, she asked the audience to reflect on their responsibility to act and to consider what they are willing to risk to prevent further atrocities.
