Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Israel Kills Khaled Nabhan, Palestinian Man Who Mourned His Granddaughter Reem: “Soul of My Soul”

HeadlineDec 16, 2024

Israel’s unrelenting slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza continues. Early this morning, a strike on the Nuseirat camp killed Palestinian grandfather Khaled Nabhan, whose story was shared with millions around the world last November after Israel murdered his grandchildren, including 3-year-old Reem, whom Nabhan was filmed cradling while repeating the words “the soul of my soul.”

Separately, Israel bombed yet another U.N.-run school without warning, killing at least 20 people in the Khan Younis shelter. At least 60 Palestinians have been killed over the past day of attacks, bringing the official death toll of the genocide to more than 45,000 Palestinians, though the true toll is certainly much higher.
