1.- Amina Ashraf Al Mufti was a 12-year-old girl killed on December 24, 2024, at Kamal Adwan Hospital by an Israeli reconnaissance drone as she was going to fetch water for her family.
2.-She lived in Beit Lahia, north of Gaza City, with her family: her father Ashraf Al Mufti, her mother Najla Fathi Husseis Al Mufti, and her 8-year-old brother Baraa.
3.-Israel bombed the house next door to where they lived during the siege of Beit Lahia in November 2024, forcing them to take refuge in Kamal Adwan Hospital.
4.-The hospital was also besieged and bombed by Israel, which cut off the hospital's water supply. After a day without water, Amina went to fetch water from the hospital courtyard for her injured father and was deliberately shot by a reconnaissance drone.
5.-Her mother and brother were later deliberately killed by Israel in a bombing on May 17, 2025, in Jabalia, as they tried to flee with their belongings in a vehicle.
6.-The video of Amina's murder, recorded by a fixed camera in the hospital, was published by Al Jazeera seven months later and confirmed by EuroMed Human Rights Monitor. After it was published, her father recognized his daughter in the video.
