Palestinian journalist who worked as a host for the Al-Aqsa Voice Radio, was killed in an Israeli airstrike on Nuseirat camp in northern Gaza, along with four of his children, according to multiple media reports, a tweet by his outlet, the Palestinian Journalists’ Syndicate, and the Beirut-based press freedom group SKeyes.
Al-Rawagh was buried on January 26, according to Al-Jazeera. Prior to his death, he posted on Facebook about his family’s dire conditions, asking for someone who was leaving Gaza to take his toddler to his wife, who fled to Sinai, Egypt, with his son Mohamed following a previous airstrike that severely injured him. After Al-Rawagh’s death, his wife published Facebook posts about him and her slain children: Loay, Nada, Yazan, and the toddler, Ahmed.
