| The
Story of Martyrdom:
Angham (10 years
old) advanced her mother to herself, and persuaded her to
stay home and depend on her to get her siblings who had fled
from long stay during the wartime. She thought that she was
small and fast and the Israeli warplanes cannot target her
because they will not see her.
Actually, the girl carried out what she wanted and went
outside to look for her siblings in the nearby agricultural
land. She saw off the people of the house and walked to the
garden, and in few seconds, the Israeli reconnaissance
warplanes fired one of their missiles at her, tearing her
little body apart. When the wife of her uncle (Intisar Al
Masry) tried to pull her little body away from the road, the
warplanes fired another missile at her, killing her and left
her nine children without a mother.
In the middle of a large family (9 sisters and 8 brothers),
Angham grew up to occupy a great status in the heart of her
mother and siblings for her sense of humor and her activity.
Her mother says: "She was very caring and used to save
some of the house needs to use them in the time of need and
alleviate the bad economic life that we experience."
Angham used to take care of her sick father who needed help
in managing his life affairs; Angham used to meet his needs
all the time.
Angham was a student in primary four and wished to join the
University as her siblings. Her mother says: "A few
days ago, I asked her to leave me alone to bake some bread
in the oven, but she refused and said: "If you die as a
martyr, I will die with you with God willing." I see
her everywhere in the house and when I intend to do
anything, I remember how she was very helpful. She used to
take care of her nephews and nieces as if she was older and
they were younger and she forgot the fact that they are
children alike."
