Badria Saeed, 37, missed an opportunity to leave Gaza when her phone's battery died at a critical moment, the Palestine News Network reported. She had waited years for the chance to depart the territory but lost it due to the dead device, according to the account by Fedaa al Qedra.
Departures from Gaza are tightly restricted, and windows to leave are rare and often short-lived.
