Giant portrait of Gaza girl Hind Rajab appears on beach ahead of Oscars
"Hind said that after the war she just wanted to go and play at the beach, just as any other child would want to do. But because she was born in Gaza, she was instead trapped in a car under fire by soldiers. The drawing is a tribute to her and encourages people to [listen to her story]."
"The Voice of Hind Rajab, which has been nominated for best international film at the awards ceremony. The movie tells the story of a worker at the Palestine Red Crescent Society, who attempts to rescue Hind from a car under fire by the Israel Defence Forces in Gaza City in January 2024."
