Ali Amer Zaqout

He was the first son to his father and the first grandchild in the family. He was named after his grandfather, and his nickname was "Kalakish Qalbi." Beloved by his grandmother and grandfather, the whole family fulfilled his every request. He was the little darling of their hearts, the soul of the entire house. He loved the sea, swimming, singing, and the tabla drum. He would always say, "I'm going to be a dentist so I can treat you." He was talkative and articulate, loved to be the center of attention at family gatherings, and would make up exciting stories. He was visiting his grandfather's house with his mother, Aya, when he was killed alongside her on October 18, 2023, in the bombing of the Khurshid family home in western Gaza.
