I mourn with a heavy heart the killing of my oldest brother by the Israeli army last Tuesday in Gaza. Sayed, my father figure and the backbone of our family left us at the age of 61 years. His kind and loving personality will be a bear witness to the brutality of the occupation.

A recently retired registered nurse, Sayed was full of dreams for his kids and grand kids. His killing and the destruction of Gaza have all but shattered these dreams! No words can ever express my pain and sorrow for his loss. May you RIP my beloved brother and friend. 💔💔💔
