Dozens of children were killed in the Israeli attack on Deir al-Balah in Gaza on Friday. Gaza's youngest online influencer was also killed in the attack.

11-year-old Yaqin Hammad, who is known for telling stories and helping children in Gaza, was found buried in the temporary home where she was living. Yakin, who has become an influential voice of Gaza, currently has more than 117 thousand followers on Instagram. His death has brought to the fore the dangers faced by the children of Gaza. 

In addition to telling her stories, Yakin used to make various videos about the life of Gaza to help the orphaned children of Gaza and collect food, clothes, fruits and toys for them. In the videos, he can sometimes be seen distributing ice cream to refugee children, distributing food and clothes to hungry families. Most of the time she was with her brother Mohammad, who is also engaged in volunteer work. Until three weeks ago, she was seen smilingly handing out ice cream at a refugee camp.

His last post was on May 16 . In it, she is seen sharing fruits with her brother. The caption read, 'Is there anything more beautiful than the smile of a child from Gaza?' Today, that question has been circulating on social media with her death, and messages have been posted by journalists, writers, social activists and influencers from around the world who know her story. Media like Al Jazeera, Daily Mail, Independent have written news about his death . 

American humanitarian activist Dr. Omar Suleiman has expressed grief over Yakin's death as a girl with a stronger heart than adults. Likewise, the British writer Kamel Hawash called her "a very beautiful girl" and considered the death of human spirit with her very sad. Mahmoud Bassam, a photojournalist from Gaza, wrote, "Even if the body is lost, his influence will remain as a glimmer of humanity." Yakin's Instagram posts have raised questions about why an 11-year-old girl suffered such a fate.  

Gaza is definitely not the only character to suffer from the ongoing war. Thousands of children and civilians have been killed in the current conflict that started from October 2023. According to the latest data, more than 53,000 people have died in Gaza. A major part of them are children. In the last ten weeks alone, there are data about 4,000 children who have died. Along with children who are constantly becoming unsafe in schools, hospitals, temporary camps and even in their own homes, the number of children who are crippled, orphaned, injured and constantly displaced is millions.
