During the war, Hadeel's mother preferred stay with her kids at her father home; she thought this is safer for her small family. But all of sudden the Israeli rockets became nearer from the house. For that the mother decided to pack for a quick leave. As sooner as she started to do pack, the Israeli rockets hit her room, killing the little daughter Hadeel.

The mother said:" I called Hadeel many times, but with no answer, so I carried her and ran while crying to get any help…to reach to the near ambulance car! It was too late for my little dying girl…No one could help us ".

"Hadeel stayed in clinical death for two days at Al- Shefaa' hospital in Gaza ". Mother added.
