Israel is intensifying its attacks against civilians in Khan Younis and across the Gaza Strip. In Deir al-Balah, doctors at Al-Aqsa Hospital were able to save newborn baby Yassin after his mother, and other family members, were killed in an Israeli airstrike on Nuseirat. This is the baby’s grandfather, who has lost multiple children to Israel’s assault, including Yassin’s mother Ola.

Adnan al-Kurd: “She was holding on to the hope of being able to hold her baby. She never expected she would become a martyr. She wanted to hold her child and fill our home with his presence. She would say, 'Mom, hopefully, this will make up for the loss of my martyred brothers and bring life back to our home.'”
