Name: Ahmed Khaled Al Najjar
Date of Birth: 20 November 2000
Date of Death: 26 July 2014
Ahmed was thirteen and totally obsessed with football. He was built like an adult. He attended all of the prayers in the mosque and was memorizing verses from the Quran. Ahmed was an obedient boy. He liked technical works, so he was planning to join the UNRWA technical school to be an electrician. "I am still missing him and still crying. I still don’t realize that he is gone forever, and I am acting as if he is still alive," his mother says.
"We left our house in Khzaah, Khan Younis because it was in a dangerous border area. We headed to my husband’s sister’s house in Bany Suheila on 25 July 2014. At 2:50 am on 26 July 2014 I woke up to prepare the ‘Sohour’ meal for my children, and suddenly, I felt I was starting to sink down and that rubble and dust was covering me. I heard neither explosion nor bombardment sounds. The house was a three-story building inhabited by twenty persons. My daughter Rawan and my son Ahmed were killed. Our neighbors came to excavate a fifteen-meter deep hole to rescue residents, and Civil Defense and ambulances arrived to help," said Ahmed's mother.
