NABLUS, West Bank — After Mahmoud al-Masri, 15, was injured, he met his brother for the first time in his life, while their mother was waiting for them in the Gaza Strip. He arrived in Nablus to get treated after the family home in Khan Yunis was bombed during the recent Israeli aggression. He underwent several surgeries after suffering a fractured foot, with cuts in his tendons and arteries.
“I was walking near the house when it was bombed by Israeli reconnaissance aircraft," Masri told Al-Monitor. "I fell on the ground and sustained an injury to the foot. I held it and ran. A while later, I fell on the ground and could not stand anymore.”
