Fifteen-year-old Mohamed was from the Al Seiamat area in Rafah, loacted to the south of the Gaza Strip. He was a very active child. "He completed elementary school, then left because he was not enthusiastic about school,” his grandfather, Mahrous, 66, said. 

The Siam family house was adjacent to the Abu Sneimah home, which was bombarded by Israeli missiles. The Siam family decided to evacuate. As soon as they went out to the street, they were hit by a missile. Ten were killed instantly. Many others were wounded, including Mohamed. Mohamed was sent to a hospital in Turkey to get medical care, where he died from his injuries.

“It’s so hard losing the family all at once,” added Mahrous.
