An Israeli air strike killed Palestinian journalist Walaa al-Jabari along with her entire family in Gaza City on Wednesday, raising the number of media workers killed during Israel’s war on Gaza to at least 231.

The strike also killed her husband, Amjad al-Shaer, and four of their children.

Local reports said the force of the blast was so intense it ejected her unborn child from her womb.

Images circulating on social media show a fetus wrapped in a shroud, though Middle East Eye could not independently verify their authenticity.

It’ll probably go like this, Israels older generations will die off and the newer generations will say don’t blame us for something our ansestors did.

What they did the last time after the horrors of the Nakba was to cry crocodile tears afterwards. What Ilan Pappe calls “shoot and cry”. It’s the basis for liberal Zionism.

The colony is built on deceit and self-victimhood.

I fear they will get away with it this time around as well. They will purge social media of their crimes and pin everything on Netanyahu. Then shed tears for what they were “forced” to do because of October 7th.

Works for North America, might as well copy the model.

They’re erasing the memory of these people, or trying to at least. This deliberate targeting of journalists and medical personnel is perhaps the most egregious violation of all human decency in living memory.

Her death brings the total number of journalists killed by Israeli forces since October 2023 to at least 231, according to Gaza’s Government Media Office.

The Committee for Protecting Journalists has been tracking numbers of journalists killed and recently there’s been a massive uptick from the average of 80 a year between 2003 and 2022.
