家庭四分五裂,父亲与孩子分离,情侣和夫妻无法团聚并结婚。43岁的维达恩·阿布·马塔尔(Wijdan Abu Matar)于2023年11月被迫携八名子女离开加沙前往接受治疗,而她受伤的丈夫哈特姆(Hatem)则留在了当地。

加沙战争因2023年10月7日哈马斯对以色列的袭击而爆发时,维达恩和家人住在努赛赖特难民营。同年10月17日,即袭击发生十天后,一次以色列空袭击中了他们家附近的穆罕德森大楼(al-Muhandseen tower),导致维达恩和她家中的每一个人受伤。

Wijdan and her family were living in the Nuseirat refugee camp when the Gaza war began with the 7 October 2023 Hamas attack on Israel. Ten days later, on 17 October that year, an Israeli strike hit the al-Muhandseen tower, near their home, injuring Wijdan and every member of her family.
