Investigation: 'Israel' Committed a War Crime by Killing Journalists Inside Nasser Hospital
An investigation by the British newspaper 'The Independent' presents new evidence that the Israeli army committed a war crime by bombing journalists inside Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis in August 2025, resulting in the deaths of 20 people, including journalist Mariam Abu Daqqa and photographer Hossam al-Masri.
A new investigation by the British newspaper 'The Independent' presents additional evidence that the Israeli army committed a war crime in the airstrike that targeted journalists inside Nasser Medical Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza Strip, on August 25, 2025. The attack resulted in the deaths of 20 people, including journalist Mariam Abu Daqqa and photographer Hossam al-Masri from the 'Reuters' agency. The investigation is based on analysis of weapon fragments, satellite images, and testimonies from medical teams, and concluded that the fragments belong to an Israeli tank shell of 120 mm caliber. The investigation revealed that two of the victims were working in humanitarian fields, one a hospital employee and the other a member of the civil defense team. The investigation noted that the Israeli army did not contact the hospital administration regarding its concerns about the camera it claimed was the target of the attack, despite having the employees' phone numbers. The 'Reuters' agency concluded that the camera was a live broadcast camera belonging to the agency. The findings have sparked calls within Britain to hold accountable those responsible for attacks targeting civilians and humanitarian workers, and British parliamentary figures have demanded stronger action against Israel.
