Blogger who documented life in Gaza killed in alleged Israeli strike
A blogger who attracted a following on Instagram and TikTok by documenting daily life in Gaza has been killed in a strike.
Mohammad 'Medo' Halimy, 20, was hit by shrapnel from a nearby blast caused by an Israeli missile in Khan Younis on Monday, according to two youth organisations he had previously worked with.
The Tamer Institute for Community Education told the BBC that Halimy was in an area near the beach where displaced people have sheltered when he was fatally struck.
The IDF told the BBC it could not confirm a strike took place in Khan Younis on Monday, but said it was continuing to "counter threats while persisting to mitigate harm to civilians" in Gaza.
"killed in a strike" makes it sound like it got a bit tasty on the picket line. And then the murdering army's ridiculous propaganda line with no caveats. Who the hell else would it be? Albania?
Look at that extra bit of excuse-building from the beeb "was hit by shrapnel from a nearby blast caused by an Israeli missile"
They are trying to keep an extra step between the missile and his death by claiming a "nearby blast caused by an Israeli missile" killed him, so they can later claim they hit an arms cache, etc.
We're still bombing but we make sure we mitigate harm to civilians by claiming anyone we kill was a fighter.
Weaselish yellow "journalism", beneath contempt.
