‘Between two flames’: the Bedouin family that came to embody tragedy and courage on Israel’s darkest day | Israel-Hamas war | The Guardian

When Hamas militants launched a murderous attack on southern Israel on 7 October, three branches of the Zeadna family experienced very different fates.Abdul Zeadna, 29, was taking a weekend break from his factory job and camping on Zikim beach, two miles from Gaza. He was shot so many times that his corpse looked like it had been “smothered” in bullets, said a relative.Yosef Zeadna, 53, a dairy farmer, was abducted from a kibbutz with his daughter Aisha, 16, and sons Hamza, 21, and Bilal, 24, and taken to Gaza. Hamas posted a photo of Hamza and Bilal lying on the ground, stripped to the waist, guarded by armed men.
