Name: Abdel Karim Anwar Darzeen “Abu Dhabbagh”
Date of birth: 9 January 2010
Date of death: 25 July 2014
Four-year-old Abdel Karim from Block-C in Al Nusairat refugee camp was a shy and sensitive child. He liked to visit his grandmother to receive the apple she always gave him. He was close to his aunts. He loved eating, maybe too much. He liked to watch cartoons. “His dreams were simple, but I hoped he would be a teacher,” said his mother.
At 2:15 pm on 25 July 2014, the last day of the holy month of Ramadan, when thirty one-children and mothers were gathered at Abdel Karim’s house, three missiles from Israeli drones struck the home. The family did not receive warning of the impending attack. “My sons, Abdel Karim and Mohamed, were instantly killed. We took them to the hospital in civilian cars. My life is not worth living after their deaths,” said his mother.
