Ismail Al-Nono played a prominent societal and reform role, and refused to cooperate with the occupation. Israeli aircraft bombed Al- nono’s house on Wednesday, March 20, leading to his martyrdom.
The assassination of Al-nono was accompanied by the targeting of activists from the “Popular Committees,” which were formed to secure and distribute humanitarian aid, in cooperation with the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. The Director General of the Government Media Office in Gaza, Ismail al-Thawabta, confirms that the assassination is related to his position on cooperation with Israel.
