The rocket fell on his bed, and it took him, with his wife and son, leaving behind six young girls,” said the infant’s grandmother, Umm Hamza Abu Mallouh, with tears in her eyes.Israel has recently resumed issuing evacuation orders to residents of the enclave – a practice that had largely subsided after an October ceasefire.
