Celebrating for the Gaza cotton arrest, then shot
The thirteen -year -old Zakariya Barbakh spent most of his life in a desperate struggle between different hospitals in Gaza, in occupied West Jordanland and in Israel. He was born without a lung and therefore had great difficulties to breathe. Doctors had predicted that he would need a transplant to reach adulthood. But the last war in gaza did impossible.
a spark of hope
as on Sunday the
doctors in the Nasser Hospital reported that an Israeli sniper had given the fatal shot in the Southern Israeli city of Rafah. Zakariya's family said CNN that he had been looking for wood for cooking and heating. His mother was destroyed: "He did not die of his illness; he died through the hands of the crew. Everything he wanted was to breathe. What did he do to earn it? What did this child do wrong?" Israeli military leadership told CNN that she knew nothing of the incident. Zakariya was one of at least four Palestinians who have been shot by the Israeli army since the ceasefire came into force. Although the Israeli military had withdrawn in buffer zones along the border with Gaza, Palestinians warned against approaching areas where troops were still stationed. A card marks the "very dangerous" zones, but where they start and end, is often unclear. A dramatic video that shows the consequences of the incident was extensively shared online. CNN showed Zakariya's family the video, and his parents confirmed that it was her son. In the video you can see a man who tries to pull Zakariya's lifeless body before he is shot. The man survived. The news about the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas Celebrate throughout the Gaza Strip. But in many areas, these celebrations were soon drowned out by the noises of Israeli air raids. In the four days between the announcement of the agreement and its entry into force on Sunday morning, Israeli attacks killed at least 142 Palestinians, including many women and children. Among the victims were also members of the family of the three -year -old As’Ad Khalifa. Less than 24 hours after the ceasefire announced, his home was hit by an Israeli air raid. As’Ad survived, however, became an orphan in one fell swoop. His parents and sister died in the attack. his neighbor Moutasem Dallou reported CNN that the attack took place in the middle of the night and "made the ground tremble". Parts of the debris flew in Dallous Haus and frightened his little children. Dallou knew the family because they had been driven out by the war at the same time. Together with other neighbors, he searched for them under the rubble. After an exhausting half hour, they found a small hand that stuck out of the rubble and reached for air. She managed to save As’Ad - dusted and injured - but his little sister was found dead next to him. Dallou and his sister Mawada then recorded As’Ad. "Almost four hours after the ceasefire was announced, his mother sent us an SMS and congratulated us on the news. Only a few moments later she was killed ... This child lost his parents in second fraction. Because of the decision of a pilot in heaven, this child lost everything," Mawada told Cnn. In an explanation of CNN, the Israeli military said that "terrorist infrastructures attacked, where a commander of the Hamas terrorist organization was. The terrorist was responsible for many rocket attacks". In addition, the explanation added that the IDF took measures to minimize damage to uninvolved people. Dallou has children of similar age to AS’AD, which makes their integration easier into the family. Nevertheless, Dallou is worried about the boy's mental health. "From my experience with my little daughter, I know that this child is going through a difficult psychological state. They are afraid of every sound ... they start crying for their mother," he said. Mawada emphasized that, since she knew As’Ad’s mother, she would do everything to hug him. "We will do our best, but we cannot replace or bring his mother back."
