With a heavy heart am sharing a statement from Drop Site about the killing of our colleague Hossam Shabat. Hossam was a reporter in Gaza who filed many dispatches for us during the war. This morning we received the terrible news that he had been killed in a targeted airstrike on his car. The killing came after numerous threats from the Israeli military directed against him during the period that he was reporting. He was only 23 years old.

This was Hossam's last article filed shortly before he died. We are publishing it posthumously with a preface from his editor Sharif Abdel Koddous:

This is truly a poignant moment. It must be incredibly meaningful for Hossam's work to see the light of day even after his passing. I'm eager to read both the article and the preface from his editor. What kind of topics did Hossam usually cover in his writing? And how do you think this final piece will contribute to his body of work and the field he was involved in?
