A Palestinian activist published a touching video clip of a girl telling the story of her displacement and her family from her home on the borders of the northern Gaza Strip, due to the violent Israeli bombing of the area in which they live.
Activist Ahmed Hegazy shared on his personal account on Instagram the video of the girl Aya Al-Attar (8 years old) from an UNRWA school to which a number of residents of Beit Hanoun (northern Gaza Strip) were displaced as a result of the Israeli bombardment on most of the border areas there.
“The occupation was throwing gas bombs on us, and we were not happy on the day of Eid, and we were deprived of everything, and they threw poison bombs on us, and our house was shaken by the bombing,” the child said in spontaneous words mixed with sadness and pain evident in her beautiful features.
In response to the activist’s question to Aya: Will she be happy if the war ends and she returns to her home? Her answer innocently, she nodded, yes.
During the filming, the activist tried to draw laughter on the lips of the girl Aya, but the effects of the psychological trauma and sadness that she lived through were overwhelmingly on her effective reaction.
During the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip for more than a week, more than 220 Palestinian martyrs, nearly half of them children and women, were killed, while about 1,400 were wounded, in addition to the displacement of thousands from their bombed homes.
