Hi there,

Independent media is more important than ever. Speaking up and telling the truth is becoming increasingly dangerous. Because we are only sponsored by you—not by governments or corporations—we can continue to bring you courageous journalism in a landscape filled with disinformation. If every person who came here for news this month gave just $15, we would be fully funded for a year. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations today will be TRIPLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $45. 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.

Democracy Now!

Israel Kills Journalist Moataz Rajab, at Least the 221st Media Worker Killed in Genocide

HeadlineMay 29, 2025

Israeli attacks so far today have killed at least 55 people across Gaza. Among the dead is Palestinian journalist Moataz Rajab, who was killed along with four other civilians in an Israeli strike on his vehicle in Gaza City. He’s at least the 221st media worker killed by Israel in Gaza since October 2023.

Meanwhile, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his forces had killed Hamas commander Mohammed Sinwar. He was apparently the target of a May 13 strike in Khan Younis, when Israeli warplanes simultaneously dropped six large bombs on the European Hospital. Twenty-eight people were killed and dozens more wounded in that attack.
