website creator Ibrahim in Japan, Parents Circle Youth Peace Delegation
[dropcap]M[/dropcap]y name is Ibrahim Shatat. I am a lawyer from Beit Jala, Palestine. My sister, Irene, was 12 years old when she had an accident. She was hit by a car. And because we live in an occupied country, the Israeli army had closed the streets and big cement blocks closed off the streets so cars could not get through. We could not get my sister to the hospital in time. The army did not let the ambulance take her either so she bled to death. We could not help her. She died in our arms. I hope there will be peace in the world and no one will lose their loved ones because it is so hard.
