This young man, Amir, came to me bare and torn clothes hanging from his weak body. He had walked 12km to get there, and when he got there, he thanked us for the little remains and crumbs he had been given. He laid them on the ground, left his food down, and laid his hands on my face, on the sides of my face, on my cheeks, these delicate, weak hands put them on my face, and kissed me. He kissed me and said thank you in English, thank you. And he gathered his belongings and returned to the” group, Agular said.
Then they shot him with pepper spray, tear gas, stun grenades and bullets in the leg and then in the air, and he ran out of fear, while the Israeli army shot the crowd.

They shoot at this mob and Palestinian civilians, human beings fall to the ground, get shot. And Amir was one of them”, he said.
Amir's cousin, Qusai al-Jarabéa, said the family had hoped he would still be alive despite having disappeared more than two months ago.
“He is still missing, his fate is unknown”, said Qusai, referring to the fact that his body has not yet been found.
Everybody's heart broken. But he is not the first child, nor will he be the last to disappear. Israel targets children”, he added.
As of May 28th, when Amir reportedly visited a GHF relief site in southern Gaza, his stepmother Siham al-Jarabéa said he had contacted every clinic and functional hospital, demanding any signs of life.
He went to get food and never came back. If the dog had disappeared this way, people would have asked where it went but because it's a Palestinian child, the world kept quiet”, she said. /Periscope/
