One of these stories is about the heartrending plight of an 11-year-old girl child called Rahaf Salman who lost three limbs recently in an israeli aerial attack on her neighborhood.

“One of my hands and two legs have preceded me to Heaven. The Zionist occupation wounded me,” Rahaf said.

Rahaf, who lives in Jabalia refugee camp in northern Gaza, was on her way to call her brother to come home for dinner as he was playing outside when suddenly a missile landed on the street where she was, inflicting serious injuries on her. That missile strike massacred seven civilians, mostly children, and wounded 35 others.

Rahaf needs nothing but to travel for medical treatment in Turkiye. She said she hopes to have prosthetic limbs in order to go to her school and be able to write.

“I hope I can write with my right hand again. I do not know how to write with my left hand,” she said.

Rahaf’s mother, who has accompanied her in the hospital, appealed, while crying, for helping her child travel soon to Turkiye to receive treatment and have prosthetic limbs.

In a related context, head of Hamas’s political bureau Ismail Haneyya talked with Rahaf and her parents over the phone on Monday and pledged to ask the Turkish leadership to facilitate her transfer for treatment in Turkiye as soon as possible. (ILKHA)
