Razan al-Najjar died on Friday, June 1st.
She was a 21-year old Palestinian nurse and paramedic. And a mother.
She was killed while running (along with other paramedics) towards the Gaza border fence with Israel.
They were running to treat some Palestinian protesters who had been wounded by shots fired from across the border.
Like the others with her, she was wearing her white paramedic uniform and waving her arms above her head as she ran towards the fence.
An Israeli sniper on the other side of the fence aimed at her, and put a bullet in her chest.
Razan al-Najjar is dead. Like the 120 or so others killed at the fence in the last couple of months.
Razan al-Najjar is dead. The Israeli military says it will investigate.
Razan al-Najjar is dead. Is there anything further to say?
Oh! yes, one thing: I prefer this picture of hers to the other one.
