An investigation which leaves little justification for Israel's double tap which killed journalists 2 weeks ago. It discredits the Israeli narrative that they were targeting "a camera used by Hamas."
Instead it seems they were targeting a Reuters camera

10 people, including 2 children, died of starvation in Gaza over the past day.
At least 313 people have died of hunger as Gaza descends deeper into famine.
This is my will and my final message. If these words reach you, know that Israel has succeeded in killing me and silencing my voice. First, peace be upon you and Allah’s mercy and blessings.
Allah knows I gave every effort and all my strength to be a support and a voice for my people, ever since I opened my eyes to life in the alleys and streets of the Jabalia refugee camp. My hope was that Allah would extend my life so I could return with my family and loved ones to our original town of occupied Asqalan (Al-Majdal). But Allah’s will came first, and His decree is final. I have lived through pain in all its details, tasted suffering and loss many times, yet I never once hesitated to convey the truth as it is, without distortion or falsification—so that Allah may bear witness against those who stayed silent, those who accepted our killing, those who choked our breath, and whose hearts were unmoved by the scattered remains of our children and women, doing nothing to stop the massacre that our people have faced for more than a year and a half.
I entrust you with Palestine—the jewel in the crown of the Muslim world, the heartbeat of every free person in this world. I entrust you with its people, with its wronged and innocent children who never had the time to dream or live in safety and peace. Their pure bodies were crushed under thousands of tons of Israeli bombs and missiles, torn apart and scattered across the walls.
I urge you not to let chains silence you, nor borders restrain you. Be bridges toward the liberation of the land and its people, until the sun of dignity and freedom rises over our stolen homeland. I entrust you to take care of my family. I entrust you with my beloved daughter Sham, the light of my eyes, whom I never got the chance to watch grow up as I had dreamed.
I entrust you with my dear son Salah, whom I had wished to support and accompany through life until he grew strong enough to carry my burden and continue the mission.
I entrust you with my beloved mother, whose blessed prayers brought me to where I am, whose supplications were my fortress and whose light guided my path. I pray that Allah grants her strength and rewards her on my behalf with the best of rewards.
I also entrust you with my lifelong companion, my beloved wife, Umm Salah (Bayan), from whom the war separated me for many long days and months. Yet she remained faithful to our bond, steadfast as the trunk of an olive tree that does not bend—patient, trusting in Allah, and carrying the responsibility in my absence with all her strength and faith.
I urge you to stand by them, to be their support after Allah Almighty. If I die, I die steadfast upon my principles. I testify before Allah that I am content with His decree, certain of meeting Him, and assured that what is with Allah is better and everlasting.
O Allah, accept me among the martyrs, forgive my past and future sins, and make my blood a light that illuminates the path of freedom for my people and my family. Forgive me if I have fallen short, and pray for me with mercy, for I kept my promise and never changed or betrayed it.
Do not forget Gaza… And do not forget me in your sincere prayers for forgiveness and acceptance.

This is what our beloved Anas requested to be published upon his martyrdom.
‘They’re skin and bones’: doctors in Gaza warn babies at risk of death from lack of formula.
Doctors say Israel is blocking deliveries of formula urgently needed as mothers are either dead or too malnourished to feed their babies

.@ZohranKMamdani decisively won the Democratic nomination. He is a loving son and husband, and community organizer who puts the people first.
The vile, Islamophobic attacks on him are disgusting and the normalization of anti-Muslim hate is dangerous.
Here is yet another reminder that the Constitution is not optional…
Congress must authorize military force before any president—including Trump—launches a strike.
Contrary to the latest drivel gurgling from the @WhiteHouse, the @smithsonian view is correct. Genetic differences among members of the same “race” are greater than differences between races. In other words, grouping people this way is a social decision, not biologically ordained
Words cannot express how utterly fucking evil American politicians are. They literally relish in the pain and suffering they cause at home and around the world while throwing their bibles in our faces and claiming moral superiority. Just awful, sociopathic cretins.
No major US news organization has reached out to me.
I suspect they are desperate that the public not look at how murderous US gov policy is or think about what journalism should be.
Across the now-decimated Gaza Strip, America’s mark is everywhere. In footage shot by CBS News in May, the ground is littered with US-made ammunition casings – some used to prop up tents, others turned into playthings by children.
Joe Biden said “If you harm an American, we will respond.” Then, Israeli forces killed 26-year-old American Ayşenur Ezgi Eygi.
More than 100 days have passed since — and Ayşenur’s family tells me the White House hasn’t even reached out, let alone held anyone accountable.
Good natured, brave and a humanitarian, Ali Alam, director of Dar Amal hospital in Baalbek, was killed in an Israeli airstrike on his home today.
He cracked all of us journalists up, despite the horrific situation.
He refused to leave the hospital despite the danger to himself
