'More than 270 Palestinians were killed in the 8 June attack on Nuseirat.' While the Jews laughed
By Fedaa al-Qedra: Momen is a 16-year-old boy struggling to cope with the physical and psychological pain inflicted on him one month ago.
His family had lived in al-Zahra, central Gaza, but fled that area
when it had come under attack at an earlier stage of the current
genocidal war. They went to stay with Momen’s grandfather in Nuseirat
refugee camp.
On 8 June, Momen was with his grandfather in a family-run supermarket
when they heard the sound of explosions. A rapid decision was taken to
close down the shop and head for his grandfather’s home in the hope that
it would be safer there.
About 30 minutes later, they realized that the Israelis were nearing
his grandfather’s house in tanks. His grandfather locked the house and
told the 15 or so people inside it to gather in one room.
Soon afterwards, Jewish soldiers broke down the door of the house and began firing everywhere.
