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. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Israeli’s Attacks Continue Across Gaza Despite Talks of Nearing Ceasefire

HeadlineDec 19, 2024

Fresh Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip have killed at least 25 Palestinians, including children. That includes 16 people killed in Jabaliya in northern Gaza, a strike on Maghazi refugee camp that killed four and bombings in Gaza City that killed at least five others. Survivors scrambled to retrieve people from under the rubble.

Mahmoud Al-Ghafry: “At exactly 10:02 at night, we were sleeping. We were sleeping. Suddenly, we heard the sounds of a strike. How? We don’t know. We went down and found it was our neighbors’ house, the Zeitouniya family. We pulled out several martyrs, children and women. And until now there are still people under the rubble they cannot reach. As you can see, they’re pulling them out. They are digging with their hands.”
