US EditionGaza photojournalist Hassan Aslih reported killed in strike on hospital
- Palestinian photojournalist Hassan Aslih was killed in an Israeli air strike on the surgical wing of Nasser Hospital in Khan Younes, southern Gaza, on March 24, 2025.
- The Israeli military said it targeted the hospital because Hamas used it to plan attacks, while Gaza's Health Ministry denied this and condemned the strike as deliberate harm to healthcare.
- Aslih had been treated at the hospital for injuries from a previous April strike, had extensively documented the October 7 Hamas assault, and worked as a freelance photojournalist with over 500,000 Instagram followers.
- The Israel Defense Forces described the bombing as a “targeted attack on key terrorists” and stated the hospital hosted Hamas operatives; meanwhile, Gaza's Health Ministry said the strike confirmed Israel's deliberate intent to damage healthcare.
- Aslih's death highlights the dangers faced by journalists amid the Israel-Gaza war, which has killed at least 178 media workers since October 2023, and reflects contested claims over journalist affiliations.
