The Israeli army bombed the Nuseirat refugee camp in Gaza and killed my nephew and his entire family. My nephew Mahmoud Alshatil took refuge in that refugee camp with his wife and four children. Now none of them are alive.
Abdul Rahman Alshatil, a resident of the besieged Gaza Strip, said these things in an interview with the Palestinian Chronicle.
Alshatil said, "There were many civilian women, men and children in that house in the refugee camp." Israeli forces deliberately bombed there. And many people were killed in this.
He also said, "My nephew was added to the list of families who were wiped out by Israel's aggression." No one else is alive in Mahmud's family. The name of my nephew's family has appeared in the registry of martyrs after the name was deleted from the registry of Palestinian citizens.
Another resident of Gaza, Mohammad Al-Assar, told the Palestine Chronicle, "Israeli forces killed my uncle and cousin's family."
Alasr said, My cousin Mohammad Alawar, Tariq Alawar and Ziad Alawar's family were all killed in the Israeli attack. They all took refuge in my uncle Dr. Abdel Rahman's house to escape the Israeli attack. But their end was not saved.
He also said, They were not associated with any Palestinian organization. They were all civilians.
In addition, Ibrahim Musa, a resident of the Nuseirat refugee camp, said, ``Four members of my neighbor Alnaqla's family were killed in the Israeli bomb attack.
Not only the relatives of Alshatil, Alasar, but thousands of residents of hundreds of families in Gaza lost their lives in the Israeli attack. In an interview given to the American media CNN, a family from the United States said that 42 members of their family were killed in Gaza on the same day by Israel's attack. On October 19, they lost their three generations in the Israeli airstrike in the Sheikh Ezlin area of Gaza.
According to the Ministry of Health of Palestine, all the members of at least 600 families in Gaza died in the attack of the Israeli forces. Their names have been completely erased from the Palestinian civil registry.
Since October 7, the Israeli army has been carrying out non-stop airstrikes in the Gaza Strip. 9 thousand 61 Palestinians have been killed so far. And more than 21 thousand were injured. Most of the dead were women and children.
42 people of the same family lost their lives in Gaza in one day!
42 members of a family were killed in Gaza on the same day in an Israeli attack. The three members of that family living in the United States said this in an interview given to the American media CNN.
Talking to CNN, Tariqhamuda and his wife Manal said that they have lost three generations in the Israeli attack on Gaza. On October 19, 42 members of their family were killed in an Israeli airstrike in the Sheikh Ezlin area of Gaza.
Tariqhamuda and his wife Manal are residents of Maple Grove, Minnesota, USA. Tariqhamuda said, On that day, there were two explosions in the house where my wife's four brothers, one sister and their children were staying. They died in this explosion.
He further said, Even after a week, Manal is unable to accept this unexpected death. Every member of the family is our own. She Manal spent the summer with her family. Manal lived with his family before coming to the US in 2004.
Hamouda also told CNN,
There have been many violent clashes between Israel and various pro-independence groups in Gaza before. However, such sabotage did not happen. Those who are still alive in this war-torn city do not even have time to mourn their dead relatives properly.
Manal's cousin Yad Abu Shaban lives in South Florida, USA. He is equally shocked to hear the news of the death of his family members.
Shaban told
My whole world stopped. I didn't just lose one, two, three or four family members. I lost 42 members of my family at once. This is really hard to accept.
Shaban said the age of the victims of his family ranged from three months to 77 years. They all lived in the same place.
Shaban claimed that before the airstrikes, the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) had announced that a military operation could be carried out in the area. But they did not ask to move from there. Israel bombed without warning.
"Even if there is fear and confusion there (in Gaza), there is nowhere to go," he lamented.
According to the latest data, 8 thousand 796 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza so far. Most of the dead were women and children. Besides, more than 21 thousand were injured.
On the other hand, according to the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, 1.4 million people have been internally displaced in Palestine.
