The family of an Al Jazeera news reporter has been killed in an Israeli air strike on Gaza, the network has confirmed.
Wael Al-Dahdouh’s wife, teenage son and young daughter were all killed at a refugee camp in central Gaza on Wednesday, Al Jazeera said in a statement.
It later reported that his grandson had died as well.
Al Jazeera condemned the killings and Israel’s “indiscriminate attack”.
According to the news organisation, Al-Dahdouh’s family was living in a house at the Nuseirat camp in central Gaza after being displaced from northern Gaza following Israel’s warning to residents to move south due to ongoing military action.
Fifteen-year-old Mahmoud was in his final year at high school, Al Jazeera said, while his daughter, Sham, was seven years old and his grandson, Adam, was 18-months-old.
Other family members were said to be buried under the rubble but some are known to have survived.
