Six of Jamila Abu Jerba’s seven children and her husband were killed when an airstrike destroyed their home in Gaza seven months ago. Jamila says the body of her 8-year-old son Usama has not been retrieved from under the rubble. Only she and her 10-year-old daughter Deema survived, rescued from the wreckage by their neighbors. They now live in a makeshift tent in Dier el Balah in Gaza, where Jamila says she needs to stay strong for Deema and make sure she provides her with a better future. “I keep thinking I will wake up from this and find my children around me,” she says.
