PALESTINE RED CRESCENT SOCIETY/FAMILY
The 6-year-old Palestinian girl who pleaded for help with emergency dispatchers while trapped in a car with dead relatives was found dead in the Tal Al-Hawa area of Gaza City, more than a week after she made her distressing final call.
Hind Rajab, who was missing for days after the Palestine Red Crescent (PCRS) sent a rescue team to try and find her, was discovered on Saturday along with the two rescue crew members near the charred shell of their ambulance, which was nearly beyond recognition.
The aid group posted photos and video of the destroyed ambulance at the scene, alleging that Israel “deliberately targeted” the rescue crew “despite prior coordination to allow the ambulance to reach the location to rescue the child.” The PCRS said that the rescuers, Yusuf Al-Zeino and Ahmed Al-Madhoun, were “just meters away from the child Hind” when they were struck down by Israeli fire.
