Israeli strikes in Khan Younis kill Save the Children staff member

Earlier we reported that Israeli attacks in the southern Gaza city had killed multiple Palestinians. Save the Children has confirmed with “profound sadness” that one of its staff members, Ahmad Faisal Isleem al-Qadi, was among the casualties.

“He was killed early Saturday afternoon as he was returning home to his wife and three-year-old daughter from the mosque,” the statement from the aid group said.

The UK-based charity said al-Qadi, who was deaf, had “shared his dream” with his co-workers of rebuilding his home that was destroyed in a previous Israeli airstrike.

“Ahmad … will be remembered for his determination to help others, for his pride in his daughter, and for his ability to brighten others’ days,” it added.
