Israeli airstrikes tore through Gaza in the early hours of Thursday, killing six people including an Al Jazeera cameraman, according to Palestinian medical officials. The deadliest strike hit a residential block in Gaza City, where a family of four was wiped out. Among the dead: Al Jazeera cameraman Mohamed al-Salhi, 32, who had been documenting the war for years.
His colleagues found his body under rubble, his camera still recording. Sources on the ground confirm the strikes targeted multiple sites across the strip, with no warning given to civilians. The Israeli Defence Forces claim they struck militant infrastructure, but the evidence suggests otherwise.
The bodies pulled from the debris tell a different story: ordinary people, a journalist, a child's shoe. This is not a war of precision. This is a war of attrition.
The numbers are staggering: over 37,000 dead since October, a humanitarian crisis that deepens by the hour. Western leaders continue to authorise arms transfers while civilians pay the price. We cannot look away.
The footage will surface. The accounts will be filed. But for now, we count the dead.
