Hind's Story

​Hind Rajab, was a five-year-old Palestinian girl, in Gaza. As her family sought to escape the relentless bombardment in Tel al-Hawa, their car was mercilessly targeted by an Israeli tank in an attack that can only be described as a war crime. Hind survived the initial barrage, only to be left alone in the blood-soaked car, surrounded by the bodies of her loved ones. Her desperate cries for help, as she begged for rescue on the phone with emergency services, moved hearts around the world.

The ambulance that was sent to save her, after hours of negotiation, was obliterated by the Israeli army, ensuring that Hind's life was cruelly and deliberately extinguished.
​This horrific act is not an isolated incident but part of a systematic and intentional campaign of extermination targeting Palestinian civilians in Gaza. Hind's death stands as a damning indictment of the genocidal killers who perpetrate these atrocities with impunity. The Hind Rajab Foundation is committed to honoring her memory by holding these perpetrators accountable and shining a light on the truth of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. We refuse to let Hind's story be forgotten or dismissed; Her story is that of all the victims of this genocide.
