Name: Deema Ashraf Mahmoud Al-Khalili
Date of birth: 23 October 2009
Date of death: 30 July 2014
Four-year-old Deema from Gaza City was sometimes soft and sometimes stubborn. She was enthusiastic about going to kindergarten. She was very close to her little brother Zeyad. She loved drawing and coloring. “She used to search her uncle's belongings,” said her grandmother, while crying.
On 21 July 2014, Mahmoud's family decided to evacuate their house due to intense and random shelling by Israeli forces. When they had reached the yard and were waiting for the car, they were directly targeted with a missile from an Israeli drone. Eight members of the family were killed on the spot, including Deema.
