Gaza mourns beloved photojournalist Fatima Hassouna killed by Israel
18 April 2025 11:40 BST
Treasured and admired, photojournalist Fatima Hassouna was known by many in Gaza for her creativity, talent and most recently her documentation of Israel's war on Gaza.
"Fatima dreamed of travelling and seeing the world," her cousin, Salma al-Suwairki, told Middle East Eye.
"She told me that she was saving the money she earned from her work so that she and her family could travel after the war so they could all come together to perform Umrah."
However, the 25-year-old, like many in the besieged enclave, would not live to capture another moment of the war.
Early Wednesday morning, Hassouna was killed by an Israeli strike that targeted her family home in Gaza City.
