In an Al Jazeera report, it was stated that the wife, son, daughter, and grandson of Wael Al-Dahdouh, Al Jazeera Arabic’s bureau head in Gaza, lost their lives in an Israeli air raid.

In an interview with Al Jazeera, Al-Dahdouh stated: "The situation is evident – a deliberate series of attacks on children, women, and civilians. I was recently reporting from Yarmouk about a similar incident, and Israeli airstrikes have hit numerous areas, including Nuseirat.

Here is the statement from Al Jazeera Media Network regarding the tragedy involving journalist Wael Al-Dahdouh's family:

The Al Jazeera Media Network extends its sincere condolences and sympathy to our colleague Wael Al-Dahdouh on the loss of his family in an Israeli airstrike.
The indiscriminate assault by the Israeli Occupation forces resulted in the tragic loss of his wife, son, and daughter, while the rest of his family is buried under the rubble.

Their home was targeted in the Nuseirat camp in the centre of Gaza, where they had sought refuge after being displaced by the initial bombardment in their neighborhood, following Prime Minister Netanyahu’s call for all civilians to move south.

Al Jazeera is deeply concerned about the safety, and well-being of our colleagues in Gaza and hold the Israeli authorities responsible for their security.

The Network strongly condemns the indiscriminate targeting and killing of innocent civilians in Gaza, which has led to the loss of Wael Al-Dahdouh’s family and countless others.

We urge the international community to intervene and put an end to these attacks on civilians, thereby safeguarding innocent lives.

The QatarDay Team offers our heartfelt sympathies to Mr. Wael Al-Dahdouh's family during this difficult time.
