Ramallah, June 1 (RHC)-- A Palestinian children's rights organization "Defense for Children" has shared a video interview with 11-year-old Rimas, who speaks about surviving under the rubble of her house for two days following an Israeli attack.

Rimas recounts how an Israeli tank drove over the ruins of her destroyed home after it was bombed by Israeli forces, leaving her trapped underground with her family.

“We were sitting quietly in our house.  Then the house was bombed.  We found the wall above our heads.  We stayed under the rubble for two days without food or water.  We expected to die under the rubble,” Rimas said.

“We didn’t expect the tanks to come,” said the injured 11-year-old, who is now among the hundreds of thousands of displaced people in Deir el-Balah in central Gaza.

“After they bombed our house, the tanks approached us.  The soldiers started shooting over our house.  The tank drove over the rubble.  We made a small hole in the wall and we barely got out.  Soldiers laughed at us and told us to move forward, neither to the right or the left,” she added.
