By Hedaya al-Tatar in Gaza City, occupied Palestine

Two Palestinian boys lie next to each other at al-Wafa medical rehabilitation hospital in Gaza.

Their mother, Aya Abu Auda, speaks to them softly, but neither child reacts.

The brothers, Elias Abu al-Jibeen, 5, and Ismail Abu al-Jibeen, 8, were wounded during Israeli bombardment on their displacement camp in Gaza City’s Tel al-Hawa neighbourhood on 31 August.

The attack left Elias completely deaf and Ismail with severe hearing loss.

Just a year earlier, Abu Auda had fled her home in northern Gaza after Israeli missiles flattened it and killed her husband.
