Al Jazeera cameraman Samer Abudaqa was killed after being hit by an Israeli airstrike. He was left to bleed out for hours after being targeted, with medics unable to reach him due to Israeli fire.
It is not enough to be “technically” truthful, when the full truth of the matter is often right in front of us. Choosing to say that people like Hamad, al-Hathalin, and Asaad were not is an injustice to their memory, and to all the other Palestinian victims who have “died” as a result of Israel’s occupation.
