Children brought from Gaza to heal from war wounds become caught in another war, in Lebanon
Nawfal's family arrived in Beirut for her wounded daughter's surgery, one of the first things she wanted to do was go to the sea. The Mediterranean had been a constant companion at their home in Gaza before the war. «The moment I smelled the sea, I felt at peace inside — as if I were in Gaza,» she said.
But soon their place of refuge reminded her of home in far more distressing ways.
Nawfal's 7-year-old daughter, Halima Abou Yassine, is one of a dozen severely wounded Palestinian children brought to Lebanon this year for treatment through a program launched by a British-Palestinian surgeon, Dr. Ghassan Abu Sitta.
But months after their arrival, Lebanon is itself embroiled in a war some fear will end in Gaza-like destruction.
In February, Nawfal was staying with her five children and her mother in an apartment in central Gaza. They had been displaced from their home in the north and Nawfal's husband was missing, likely dead.
