(250710) -- GAZA, July 10, 2025 (Xinhua) -- Sara al-Borsh is seen near her family tent in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood in Gaza City, on June 29, 2025.

On the dusty floor of a makeshift tent in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City, 10-year-old Sara al-Borsh clutches a pen between her toes, carefully sketching a butterfly on the back of a recycled notebook page.

Just months ago, she was drawing with her hands, dreaming of becoming a pediatrician. But an Israeli airstrike in October 2024 shattered those dreams, along with her arms and her father's life.
