Mariam Dagga, 33, photo journalist, killed at a Gaza hospital along with 20 other people including four other journalists

Israeli troops fired on Nasser Hospital in Gaza August 15 and then fired again on journalists and rescue workers rushing to the scene. Among the dead were five journalists, including 33-year-old Mariam Dagga, a visual journalist who worked for The Associated Press.

The AP posted a selection of Mariam Dagga’s photos here, along with links to some of the stories that included her work. 

The Reuters news agency said one of its reporters was killed in the initial strike as he operated a live television shot on an upper floor of the hospital. 

According to the British newspaper The Guardian, it has become the norm for journalists working in Gaza to prepare their wills in case they are killed. In hers, Dagga left behind two sets of instructions: to her colleagues, do not cry at her funeral; to her 13-year-old son, Ghaith, make her proud.
