US EditionJournalist’s final images show the Gaza hospital stairwell where she was killed by an Israeli strike
- Visual journalist Mariam Dagga was killed on Monday by an Israeli strike hitting Nasser Hospital in Gaza, which killed 22 people including five reporters.
- The strike took place during Israel’s ongoing military campaign initiated after Hamas militants attacked on October 7, 2023, capturing 251 individuals and causing the deaths of approximately 1,200 civilians.
- Israel's military said it targeted a Hamas surveillance camera at the hospital, while international outrage grew over the double strike and the call for evacuation of Gaza City ahead of a new offensive.
- Dagga’s final photographs depicted the hospital’s damaged stairwell, and a letter she had penned shortly before her death—describing her as a devoted mother armed only with her camera—was shared with the UN Security Council.
- The strikes and continued offensive have worsened Gaza’s humanitarian crisis, with no ceasefire in sight as Israel mobilizes reservists and pursues its military campaign while simultaneously discussing ceasefire plans.
