GAZA: In a horrific testimony on the ongoing crimes of the Israeli occupation against Palestinian civilians in the Gaza Strip, a woman from the city of Khan Yunis said that her daughter and her husband were burned to death after the Israeli forces set fire to their tent in Al-Mawasi area, west of Khan Yunis, last Monday night. The mother explained, in a video clip circulating on social media, shot by Mahmoud Bassam, that 'fire descended on us and the tent caught fire. My daughter was near me and she caught fire and I could not put it out until she was charred, and my husband caught fire and was charred and killed as a result.' She added, pointing to her daughter on a bed in a hospital in the Gaza Strip, 'We left the tent burning with fire, and this is my daughter, with burn marks on her hands, face, and all over her body, and I suffered burns on my hands until my bones appeared.'
