   Gaza marks one year since Israeli hospital strike killed Mariam Dagga

   Gaza held a ceremony on August 25 to mark the first anniversary of an Israeli double strike on Nasser hospital. The attack killed 22 Palestinians, including visual journalist Mariam Dagga. While the event highlighted Dagga's work for The Associated Press and other outlets, rights groups report that no one has been held accountable for the deaths. Questions remain regarding the rationale for the attack, and investigators continue to examine whether the strike constituted war crimes.

   Why it matters

   The strike targeted a medical facility during the ongoing conflict in Gaza. UK MPs have previously called for the Israeli government to be held responsible for Dagga's death. This incident is part of a broader pattern where rights groups claim Israeli troops are rarely prosecuted for killing Palestinians.
