115 Palestinian Babies Born, Killed in War on Gaza

According to the Health Ministry in Gaza at least 115 babies born during this Israeli war that started just after 7 October, 2023, were also killed in this slaughter perpetrated by the Israeli army and warplanes.

Among the most recent victims are four-day-old twins, Aseel and Aisar Abu Al Qumssan; they were a baby girl and a boy who were born in a difficult cesarean operation in Al Aqsa Martyrs Hospital in Dier Al Balah.

They were born on 9 August, and were killed four days later along with their mother Jumana and their grandmother in an Israeli airstrike that targeted their home. As with other hundreds of thousands of Palestinians they were forced to come to Deir al-Balah by the Israeli army, a place seen as a safe zone.

Their father Mohammad Abu Al Qumssan went hysterical, brandishing their birth certificates which he just picked up in a government office from central Gaza and was hurrying back home to show his wife the stamped documents.

He was devastated when he heard the news.
