Surviving children from the Abu Nasr family massacre share their testimonies of the Israeli bombing that massacred their family.

Translation:

• "I am Muhammad Fareed Shawqi Abu Nasr. They bombed our house at 4 am and I was flung from my parents' mattress along with my siblings Yazan and Hadeel. My mom was called Suheir and my dad Fareed. They took me to the neighbors' house and thought I was dead until I moved my feet. They then took to me to the hospital."

• "It was around 4 am. When I came to, I was under the rubble. I tried moving my legs but could not. I started screaming for help. My mother was agonizing next to me. My brother was killed along with my father, sister-in-law, nephews and my two brothers. All were martyred. My mother and one brother are the only family I have left."

Early morning (3 am), residents of the Abu Nasr family house sent out appeals for rescue after the five-storey house in the Beit Lahia project was bombed by Israeli forces. 93 people were killed. Dr. Abu Safiya, director of Kamal Adwan hospital stated that the hospital received 70 martyrs and 80 injured from the Abu Nasr family massacre.

Update Nov 1, 2024:

Locals retrieved the bodies of 117 people, whereas another 137 remain under the rubble, most likely passed away.

The family had offered shelter from the Israeli onslaught to displaced people, as many had moved from Jabalia to Beit Lahia. There were about 300 people in the house when it was bombed

The Euro-Mediterranean Human Rights Monitor reported that the house sheltered about 200 people and collected testimonies from survivors and claims that an American MK-84 bomb weighing 908 kilograms was used. The information is yet to be verified by weapons experts, noting that no fragments of the bomb were found on the scene yet.

One of the very few survivors, Muhammad Nabil Issa Baraka Abu Nasr, insisted in a testimony that the house was not struck with a bomb, but rather with barrel bombs. He added that they found family members were flung all across neigborhood buildings from the sheer force of the explosion.

Another survivor stated to EuroMed HR Monitor that his wife and four children were among the dead. He himself was flung dozens of meters away by the force of the blast, injuring him all over his body. He was only rescued by locals who took him to Kamal Adwan Hospital, where he has been awaiting transfer to Al-Awda Hospital for surgery.

Update Feb 3, 2025

Eman Mustafa, a member of the family who lost her uncle Alaa Asfoura and her cousins shared an update. Amid Civil Defense effort to identify as many of the dead interred in mass fraves, the crews retrieved some of the corpses of the family members from the Beit Lahia market, which was turned into a cemetery during the North Gaza siege. Eman emphasized that the bodies of a large number of family members is still presumably buried under the rubble.
