Naser (center), Amina's brother, shows the injury caused while he was running to flee the Iranian attack when a piece of projectile fell into the room where the family was sleeping.

Mohamed al Hasuni looks at the hole caused by the chunk of projectile as it passed through the metal roof and hit the floor of his house. He opens his hands about 20 centimeters to gauge the size, which coincides with the size of the gaping hole in the roof. The impact seriously injured his daughter Amina, seven, who is now in a hospital fighting for her life. “When we picked her up, she had blood on her head,” explains the 49-year-old father, while flicking the right side of his ear upwards. Amina was the only serious victim of the attack launched by Iran in the early hours of Sunday morning against Israel. Israel claimed to have intercepted, with the help of its allies, 99% of the more than 300 drones and missiles launched by Tehran.
