Five members of their family were killed, including their father Ahmed, their little brother Adham (4) and their grandparents Ibrahim and Jamila. They were killed in their home when a neighbouring house was targeted.
“There was a warning missile, but we did not know which home will be targeted. We all went down to the ground floor. There was another missile. We thought that was it. I wanted to go outside with my brother to see, but my father insisted we don’t go. We were at the entrance with Ahmed. I fell unconscious and I woke up at the hospital,” recalls Mahmoud Abu ‘Ayta (30), Ibrahim’s son.
