Airwars assessment
On Tuesday, October 10th, 2023, an alleged Israeli strike killed two civilians, a 32-year old man named Ahmed Nahid Hasan Masoud and his 4-year old daughter, Suzan Ahmed Nahid Masoud, at their home in the Gaza Strip.
Social media posts shared by relatives expressed a deep sense of loss and grief for both Ahmad and Suzan. They were highlighted as individuals cherished by their community.
Ahmed Nahid Masoud, affectionately referred to as “Abu Anas,” was remembered as a man of integrity, sincerity, and dedication to his faith and work. His friend and relatives shared images of the smiling bearded man, alone and with his daughter.
Suzan, born on March 3, 2019, was described as exceptional in every way by the “Martyrs of Gaza” Twitter/X account, and as a child full of innocence whose life was tragically cut short. According to Twitter/X user Nour Naim, the girl was killed in an Israeli airstrike on their house. Martyrs of Gaza shared images of the smiling young girl in a school uniform and wearing a pink dress and green jacket. Facebook user Banan Salah wrote about her “A bird in heaven… the sweetest and most intelligent girl in the world, you are the rose of the house.”
The posts also expressed support and prayers for the surviving family members, particularly Suzan’s mother, who now faced the heartbreaking task of rebuilding her life without her husband and daughter. They called for patience, serenity, and healing for those left behind.
Both names have been matched with the Palestinian Ministry of Health list of fatalities in Gaza released on October 26th, 2023.
