On Thursday, March 5, 2026, a 20-year-old man, Abdul Rahman Walid Muhammad Sharab, who had a mental disability, was shot and killed by three bullets allegedly shot by the Israeli military near Al-Alam Roundabout and Flag Square in Rafah, in the Gaza Strip.

Abdul Rahman was a resident of Khan Younis Al-Sikka and, according to Shurrab.org, he was found wounded in the Al-Alam area of Rafah, and then succumbed to his injuries. According to @Qadeyah1 on Twitter/X, he went missing for two days before his death.

An image of Abdul Rahman, shared by many sources, shows a young man with short, dark hair and light-colored eyes smiling directly at the camera. He is wearing a casual top with a patterned section near the shoulders.

His cousin, Badr Sharab, mourned his death on Facebook, writing, “My cousin Abdul Rahman Walid Muhammad Sharab has been martyred. May God have mercy on you, Abdul. The funeral prayer will be held today, Thursday, at 9 a.m. at Nasser Hospital.”

@F24online on Twitter/X posted the pictures, showing the funeral of the young man. Four women and a boy are seen crying over his body.

Martyr Killed by Israeli Fire in Khan Younis Thursday, March 5, 2026, 12:45 PM A young man with disabilities was killed today, Thursday, after being shot by Israeli occupation forces, as they continue to violate the ceasefire in the Gaza Strip for the 145th consecutive day. A medical source reported the death of Abdul Rahman Walid Muhammad Sharab, 20, who had an intellectual disability. He succumbed to three gunshot wounds sustained when Israeli forces opened fire near the Flag Roundabout in Rafah. Meanwhile, fisherman Mustafa Ali Fakhri Bakr, 28, was wounded by Israeli naval gunfire. Israeli military vehicles opened fire east of Khan Younis at dawn today, in a neighborhood where Israeli warplanes also launched an airstrike on Gaza City. Since October 10, Israeli forces have continued to violate the ceasefire agreement through airstrikes, artillery shelling, and indiscriminate firing throughout the Gaza Strip. According to the daily statistical report on Israeli violations, the total number of martyrs reached 665, including 199 children, 85 women, and 23 elderly people, as a result of the Israeli aggression. This means that children, women, and the elderly constitute 46.4% of the total victims. The number of wounded reached 1,700, including 518 children, 342 women, and 90 elderly people, representing 55.8% of the most vulnerable groups. This clearly indicates the widespread impact of military operations on civilians.

شهيد بنيران الاحتلال في خان يونس الخميس 5 مارس 2026 12:45 م استشهد شاب من ذوي الإعاقة – اليوم الخميس- جراء إصابته برصاص قوات الاحتلال الصهيوني مع استمرارها في خرق وقف إطلاق النار في قطاع غزة لليوم الـ 145 على التوالي. وأفاد مصدر طبي باستشهاد عبد الرحمن وليد محمد شراب (20 عامًا) من ذوي الإعاقة الذهنية؛ متأثرًا ب3 رصاصات أصيب بها جراء إطلاق نار من قوات الاحتلال قرب دوار العلم برفح. إلى ذلك، أصيب الصياد مصطفى علي فخري بكر (28 عامًا) برصاص بحرية الاحتلال. وأطلقت آليات الاحتلال النار شرقي خان يونس فجر اليوم، في حي شنت طائرات الاحتلال غارة على مدينة غزة. ومنذ 10 أكتوبر الماضي، تواصل قوات الاحتلال خرق اتفاق إطلاق النار عبر القصف الجوي والمدفعي وإطلاق في مختلف أرجاء قطاع غزة. وبحسب التقرير الإحصائي اليومي حول خروقات الاحتلال، بلغ إجمالي الشهداء 665 شهيداً، بينهم 199 طفلاً و85 امرأة و23 مسناً، بالعدوان الصهيوني؛ ما يعني أن الأطفال والنساء والمسنين يشكلون 46.4% من إجمالي الضحايا. كما بلغ عدد المصابين 1700 جريح، بينهم 518 طفلاً و342 امرأة و90 مسناً، بنسبة 55.8% من الفئات الأكثر ضعفاً، في مؤشر واضح إلى اتساع أثر العمليات العسكرية على المدنيين.
