He paid particular tribute to Hamza Al Dahdouh, a cameraman for Al Jazeera and the son of Wael Al Dahdouh, who serves as the network's #Gaza bureau chief. Along with freelance Agence France Presse videographer Mustafa Thuraya, #HamzaAlDahdouh was killed on Sunday when an Israeli drone strike hit the car they were driving in en route to an assignment in southern Gaza. Their killing was part of what Christophe Deloire, secretary-general of Reporters Without Borders, called "the eradication of #journalism in the besieged enclave."
Hasan noted that Wael Al Dahdouh "has already lost his wife, two other children, and a grandson in this war, and has been injured himself from an Israeli airstrike."
"Let's be clear," he added, "without those brave Palestinian journalists on the ground, there would be no one to tell the rest of the world—to tell all of us—about the ongoing horrific impact of this war on the innocent people of Gaza."
