Watan-The Palestinian boy Roshdi Abu al-Rous, aged 15, displaced with his family from Gaza City to its center, once dreamed of becoming a football player. However, his aspirations were shattered by the Israeli occupation after he was paralyzed during a bombardment on his way to fetch water for his family.
In a video captured by Palestinian journalist Osama al-Kahlout, Roshdi Abu al-Rous says, “I was going to fetch water for my family. We were displaced from Gaza, and there was a water crisis for my family. Sometimes I used to stand in line.”
