Mohammad returned to his shelter at Abu Asi Orphan Camp in Al Bureij, central Gaza, in June 2025, hours after Israeli drones destroyed his vehicle moments after he left it, Dawn reported. He had been working to support displaced children and other Palestinians sheltering at the camp when the strike occurred.
Despite the narrow escape, Mohammad's sister Sara knew he would reject her pleas to rest and recover from the attack. The incident reflects the hazards confronting humanitarian workers operating amid Gaza's displacement camps, where thousands rely on aid deliveries and basic services provided by volunteers and relief organizations working in difficult conditions.
