Palestinian visual craftsman Heba Zagout unfortunately lost her life close by her youngsters during the Israeli attack on Gaza. Heba Zagout’s last message, posted a couple of days prior, read: “O Allah, we depend You with hearts broke by partition. O Allah, retouch our wrecked hearts, award us persistence notwithstanding your judgment and destiny. Be our solidarity, remain close by, brace our understanding, and award us for our persevering through soul. O Allah, join our delicate hearts, as they rely entirely upon You.”
