Archivist Notes: Airstrike and siege of the journalist Ahmed al-Zard family home

On October 1, during a surprise Israeli assault on Khan Younis, the house of Al-Agha family where the al-Zard family was sheltering was struck. The house was located directly next to the Ma'an station, east of Khan Yunis.

This is the family of journalist Ahmed al-Zard, cameraman for the Al-Kufiya channel in southeastern Khan Younis.

Casualties:

  • 3 injuries: Ahmed Al-Zard, his mother and brother were injured
  • 4 members of the family were killed: Ahmad's brother, uncle, and two cousins.

During the whole night of October 1 and until the dawn hours, Israeli offensive prevented ambulances from reaching several besieged houses that were bombed by the IDF, including Al-Zard family. The family remained besieged for many hours.
