Four-year-old Abdullah from Qalibo area in Beit Lahia refugee camp in the north of the Gaza Strip was an active and obedient child. He was very insistent on attending his kindergarten. He liked to play football and to ride his bicycle. "He asked many times for us to buy him a school bag," his father, Ramadan, 32, said.  

At approximately 9:15 am on 10 July 2014, Abdullah and his brother, Mohamed, 6 were playing outside his house. An Israeli warplane missile targeted Mortaja farm (adjacent to the home). Abdullah was immediately killed, Mohamed was seriously injured, and his mother and his sister Asmaa were injured as well. "Now we are fine, but we are still missing Abdullah," said his mother.
