Description

A group of displaced Palestinian female artists has created a mural on a wall of the Khaled bin Walid school in Nuseirat camp to praise the painstaking efforts of medical personnel, journalists and Civil defense teams amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas war.

Footage filmed on Wednesday features young artists painting a journalist, nurse and paramedic coming out from under the rubble trying to salvage victims trapped there.

"Today, a mural titled 'Real Heroes' is being painted by my friends and me. This mural mirrors the suffering of the Palestinians, first and foremost, individuals who made significantly strenuous effort to share the real status quo worldwide, they are civil defence, paramedic, nurse and journalist," Malak Bedwan, a visual artist, explained.

Another artist, Minah Hamoudah added that the drawing depicts a person, whether a nurse, journalist, or paramedic, coming out from under the rubble attempting to rescue the victims, with missing persons still trapped under the rubble.

Fighting continues in Gaza for a sixth month after Hamas launched an unprecedented attack on southern Israel on October 7, killing 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and kidnapping over 200, according to Israeli officials.

Israel declared war on the group and a 'complete siege' of Gaza, with a large-scale campaign of air strikes. A ground incursion began at the end of the third week, with Israeli leaders vowing to 'wipe out' Hamas. Palestinian officials reported that at least 31,490 people had been killed and more than 73,430 injured at the time of publication.

The Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) claimed that Hamas locations and infrastructure were targeted in the response. However, United Nations experts warned against 'collective punishment' for the people of Gaza, before predicting a 'humanitarian crisis' and then claimed that 'hell is settling in' for the region.
