Archivist Notes: Midnight strike on Ghabboun family and Civil Defense - Sabra

Moments before midnight, Israeli aristrikes targeted a house belonging to the Ghabboun family, opposite Al-Sultan Bakery in Sabra neighborhood, southwest of Gaza City.

About 20 minutes later, when journalists and Civil Defense crews arrived on the scene, the house was bombed again, killing Civil Defense member Ali Omar and injuring journalist Hossam Shabat.

Hossam recounted that he was injured by rubble falling from the roof following a second strike.
