Name: Maria Omar Salama Dohair.
Date of birth: 19 October 2002.
Date of death: 19 July 2014.
Eleven-year-old Maria from the Msabeh area in Rafah in the south of the Gaza Strip was a funny, clever and shy girl. She was an outstanding student. She had a sweet voice and she loved to draw. “She wanted to be a doctor,” said Sheikh Mohamed Dhair.
At approximately 4:29 am on 29 July 2014 an Israeli drone launched a missile at the Dhair family's house. During the evacuation, when seven people had just stepped out of the main door of the house and the rest of the group was close behind, a second missile hit the house. The three-storey house was completely destroyed. Twenty persons were killed, including Maria. Three more were injured.
