Khaled

Khaled

Age 5 · 18 October 2023 · Rafah

The kindest and sweetest child in the world, he was killed in the bombing of the al-Khawaja family's home in Rafah. He was missing under the rubble and there was hope he would be found alive, but my beloved is gone. He is gone with his grandfather, his uncle, and other children like him. Khaled… Amal's only child, a gift from God after five years of waiting. He had a twin brother, Adam, who passed away hours after their birth, and now Khaled has gone to join him.
