In the midst of the ongoing conflict in Gaza, a nurse named Amal Abu Khatleh has taken in an orphaned infant found after an Israeli strike, naming her Malak, which means "angel" in Arabic. The baby, discovered in a tree and initially labeled as "unknown," was the sole survivor of a massacre in the Sabra neighborhood.

Malak recently celebrated her first birthday with Abu Khatleh, who has grown deeply attached to the child.
