The family of Momin Alshrafi, a correspondent for Al Jazeera Arabic, has been killed in an Israeli air attack on the home they were sheltering in.
The attack, which took place overnight on the Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, killed 21 members of Alshrafi’s family, including his parents Mahmoud and Amina, his siblings and their spouses, as well as nephews and nieces.
Alshrafi told Al Jazeera that an explosive barrel hit the home, resulting in a deep hole.
“None of the civil defence crews are unable to reach their bodies,” he said. “We are prevented from saying goodbye to our loved ones, and are deprived of giving them a proper burial.”
On October 25, an Israeli raid killed several members of Al Jazeera Arabic’s chief correspondent in Gaza, Wael Dahdouh.
