Huda


"Don't leave me alone."
With those parting words, and amid a sea of tears from thousands of mourners, 12-year-old Huda Ghalya bade farewell on Saturday to her mother, father and three siblings killed when a sunny day on the beach turned into the child's darkest day.
The five family members were among seven Palestinians who died when an explosion tore through the beach in northern Gaza on Friday as Israeli artillery shelled the coastal area used by militants to fire rockets into Israel.
She was swimming when her family died yards away onshore.
