Name: Marah Shaker Ahmed Al Jamal
Date of birth: 17 December 2003
Date of death: 20 July 2014
Ten-year-old Marah from Al Shejaeiah in Gaza City was a sociable and smart girl. She liked to watch the Toyor Al Jannah children’s channel and would sing and dance along to the melodies. She was going to start fifth grade soon and was an outstanding student. She liked drawing. She combed her own hair.
Her parents were visiting doctors very frequently and she liked to tease them that her ambition was to be a doctor to provide free medical care for her parents.
On 20 July 2014, the family’s house was bombarded by three Israeli missiles while they were inside. “I witnessed the killing of my husband, Marah and others. After we lost Marah and her father, we live like orphans,” her mother said.
