Al Mayadeen correspondent in Palestine reported today the death of Lian Al-Shaer, a 10-year-old girl from Khan Yunis, southern besieged Gaza. Al-Shaer was announced dead at the Al-Makassed Hospital in Al-Quds, as a result of her injuries during the most recent Israeli aggression on Gaza.

The young martyr arrived at the hospital last Tuesday in a critical state due to a severe head injury, as shrapnel penetrated her brain and damaged sensitive tissue.

Since the start of the most recent assault on Gaza, the number of martyrs since the beginning of the Israeli aggression to 31, including six children, and the number of wounded reached 253.

Gaza: 'Israel' butchers childhood, bereaved parents mourn in solitude

Rasha Qadoom, a Palestinian mother, clutches her five-year-old daughter Alaa's tiny pink backpack, which she will never again carry on her little back.

Alaa was the first of 16 children killed in three days of Israeli brutal aggression in the besieged Gaza Strip.

"It was a Friday like any other," said Qadoom, 27, remembering how Alaa had been dressed in a pink T-shirt to match her pink bag with a pink ribbon tied in her hair.

"She was happy, she wanted to go to the park with her aunt."

But as she went to her aunt on Friday afternoon, “Israel” launched missiles on a civilian area.

When Alaa was knocking on her aunt's door, a missile smashed down from an Israeli warplane.

With her shaky hands, Qadoom holds the blood-stained rags of Alaa's T-shirt, unable to comprehend why her five-year-old daughter was killed.

"Nobody was armed in the neighborhood. Instead of going to play in the park, she came back to me with clothes full of blood," she tearfully said.
