Ayat Omar Khadoura, 27 years old, from Beit-lahia was a Palestinian freelance journalist and podcast presenter. She was killed on November 20, 2023 As a result of an Israeli bombing that targeted her home in Beit lahia in northern Gaza, along with four members of her family, according to the Beirut-based press freedom group SKeyes, the news website Arabi 21, and London-based Al-Ghad TV.

Khadoura shared videos on social media about the situation in Gaza, including on November 6, where, in a haunting video posted shortly before her death, Khadoura expressed her fear for her life, narrating the terrifying situation in her area following the use of white phosphorous and thermobaric bombs. She called “my last message to the world” where she said, “We had big dreams but our dream now is to be killed in one piece so they know who we are.”"This could possibly be my last video," Khadoura said, in tears. "The situation is very frightening, and the whole thing is very terrifying. May our lord have mercy on us."

Al-Hassanat, who had previously documented her experiences living under Israeli bombardment in a poignant article a year after the 2014 conflict escalation, was a dedicated journalist committed to conveying the truth of conflicts.

Ayat Khadura was martyred along with her two sisters, two brothers, her grandfather, and her grandmother, according to what her sister "Ghadeer" announced.
