Translation of father's testimony:

"This is my daughter. I'm a civil defense member and have been on duty for 90 days. Because of the lack of tools and the danger, I've been trying, every day, every day, to pull my 7 months-old daughter from the rubble, and I don't know how. She's been buried for 25 days. I've been trying with only my hands and nails to pull her out after 25 days. Where is the world?! Where is the UN and all those world orgs?! Me, a Civil Defense member, am unable to get her out! Her body has been torn apart, head here and hand there. And she's one of 28 corpses buried under the rubble here."

Grief clearly audible in his voice, a Civil Defense worker, in his orange coat and vest, crouches atop the rubble that has kept him from recovering his baby daughter's body for 25 days and counting, after his home was destroyed by an Israeli air strike.

Documenting a systematic pattern of targeting Civil Defense personnel both while working, and in their homes with their families.

• As of September 8th, 2024, 83 members of Gaza's Civil Defense have been killed, with the most recent being Colonel Mohamed Morsi, Deputy Director of Civil Defense in northern Gaza, who was martyred with a number of his family members after their home in Jabalia camp was bombed.
