'A rocket fell on us': Girl, 10, fighting for her life after strike on children in Gaza
Lyan has already lost her mother, brother, sister and grandparents since the start of the war, and her father is now fighting for his life in hospital. In the intensive care unit at the Nasser Hospital in Gaza, our cameraman filmed ten-year-old Lyan lying unconscious after several surgeries to remove shrapnel from her body. Her aunt was stroking her head, praying and repeating the words ''May God save you." ITV News previously reported the moment when Lyan and three other girls were rushed into the hospital after a drone strike on their tent in Khan Younis. The rest were discharged with minor injuries, but Lyan had internal bleeding and extensive blast wounds to her head, chest and legs. Her father is fighting for his life elsewhere in the hospital; she has already lost her mother, brother, sister and grandparents since the start of the war. Her aunt, Ebtisam, is one of her only surviving relatives. She told us they were in an area the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) had declared a safe area, but she said in reality, nowhere is safe anymore. It was just before 1am; the children were all asleep, and suddenly there was a huge blast. Ebtisam says there were no armed groups or resistance in the area, only sleeping children. With talk of a ceasefire that could come as early as next week, the situation on the ground in Gaza is increasingly dangerous and desperate. Locally run aid stations have become chaotic, as food shortages have worsened and hunger has taken hold of the enclave. There is not enough to go around, but most believe it is safer jostling in line for what will be only a small tub full of food than risking your life going to one of the international distribution centres. New footage, reportedly leaked by two American contractors, has provided the clearest evidence yet that Palestinians are being intentionally shot at. In a series of videos shared with the Associated Press, first you can see that live bullets and teargas are fired into the hungry crowd, then you hear a man with an American accent shout 'I think you hit one,' followed by the celebratory confirmation 'Hell yeah, boy". At the United Nations Human Rights Council in Geneva, the Special Rapporteur has accused Israel of genocide. Francesca Albanese said: 'It's so-called Gaza Humanitarian Foundation is nothing else but a death trap engineered to kill or force the flight of a starved, bombarded, emaciated population marked for elimination.' The US and Israeli-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation insists there have been no injuries at any of its aid sites and says it is operated by experienced security professionals. The IDF has admitted there have been deaths at and near aid distribution centres, but denies that unarmed civilians have been directly targeted. Our cameraman in Gaza filmed the funeral of Yousef Alahkras, whose family says was killed trying to get them a bag of flour. His mother fell to her knees and cried that there is no humanity left in Gaza, there is only humiliation and death. At the forefront of people's minds in Gaza is not the ceasefire, it is surviving all this war throws at them and hoping their families will live to see it end.

Top Gaza doctor killed in IDF strike as Channel 4 airs Gaza doctor documentary
As Channel 4 aired the 'Gaza: Doctors Under Attack' documentary that the BBC refused to broadcast last night, an Israeli airstrike killed one of the Strip's most senior doctors. Dr Marwan al-Sultan, a renowned cardiologist and director of Gaza's Indonesian Hospital, was killed in his apartment in Gaza City on the same day the film, presented by investigative reporter Ramita Navai, was shown. Dr Al-Sultan is the 70th healthcare worker to be killed by Israeli attacks in the last 50 days, according to the Palestinian medical organisation Healthcare Workers Watch. A relative of Dr al-Sultan's said several of his family members, including his wife, his daughters and his son-in-law, died alongside him. His death has been described as a 'catastrophic' loss to the besieged enclave's already decimated healthcare system. Dr Mohammed Abu Selmia, director of Gaza's al-Shifa hospital, said: 'We are in great shock and grief. He cannot be replaced.' The Israeli military said it had struck a 'key terrorist' from Hamas. They said they are 'reviewing' reports that 'uninvolved civilians' were harmed in the attack. 'Gaza: Doctors Under Attack' was first commissioned by the BBC, but was dropped after a previous documentary – 'Gaza: How to Survive a War Zone' – sparked an impartiality row. The documentary, which has been described as an 'unceasing timeline of horrors', was picked up by Channel 4 and Zeteo late in the day. The Guardian and other outlets have given it five stars. Since Israel launched its war on Gaza following the Hamas-led October 7 attacks on Israel, in which at least 1,195 Israelis and 79 foreign nationals were killed, doctors in the enclave have been treating patients without access to proper sanitation, medication, electricity or water. The Indonesian Hospital, which is the largest medical facility north of Gaza City, has been a critical lifeline since the start of the war. It was forced to close in January due to repeated Israeli bombardment. When accused of targeting hospitals and medical facilities, the IDF said they 'regret any harm to uninvolved individuals' and 'operate to mitigate harm to them as much as possible'. Under Article 18 of the Geneva Convention, civilian hospitals, ambulances and field hospitals 'may in no circumstances be the object of attack'. International law and the Geneva Convention also prohibit the deliberate harm of medical staff who are not engaged in combat. In April, the IDF fired on marked ambulances and a fire truck with emergency lights flashing. They later said their soldiers did not randomly attack any ambulances, insisting they fired on 'terrorists' approaching them in 'suspicious vehicles'. The only hospital fully operating in Gaza is Nasser Hospital, in the south of the Strip. The rest are either destroyed or operating at minimal capacity due to damage and the death of their staff. The Channel 4 documentary includes footage of doctors being detained. They claim they were tortured by the IDF, but the IDF has denied this. Medglobal, a medical NGO based in the US, says it believes more than 300 healthcare workers are in Israeli prisons. Since yesterday morning, Israeli attacks have killed 40 people across the Gaza Strip, according to the health ministry, with four children and seven women among the dead. Today, Amnesty International has said the controversial Israeli and US-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF), which is being used to distribute aid in Gaza, is using starvation tactics against Palestinians to commit genocide. They condemned Israel and the GHF, which has taken over aid distribution in Gaza in place of a network led by the United Nations. In response, Israel's foreign ministry claimed that Amnesty – a British organisation – 'joined forces with Hamas' to 'adopt propaganda lies'. Photos and videos, along with official reports from Palestinian officials and witnesses, have shown Israeli forces opening fire at crowds of people near the sites. More Trending Agnes Callamard, Amnesty's secretary general, said: 'This devastating daily loss of life as desperate Palestinians try to collect aid is the consequence of their deliberate targeting by Israeli forces and the foreseeable consequence of irresponsible and lethal methods of distribution.' The IDF claims it has fired warning shots to control crowds and only fires at people it says are acting suspiciously. The Foreign Ministry and COGAT, the Israeli defence body in charge of coordinating aid to Gaza, said Israel has facilitated the entry of more than 3,000 aid trucks into the Gaza Strip since May 19. Israel has rejected genocide allegations against it as an antisemitic 'blood libel'. Get in touch with our news team by emailing us at webnews@ For more stories like this, check our news page.
