A Palestinian family in Nallyus has welcomed a newborn baby just one day after the child's father was killed by Israeli forces during a raid in the occupied West Bank.
Nayef Samaro, 26, was shot dead by Israeli troops during the military operation in the city. The death occurred only a day before the birth, according to reports from aljazeera.com.
A family in mourning
The newborn arrived in the midst of the family's grief following the fatal raid. The incident took place in Nablus, a city in the West Bank that has seen frequent military activity.
Aljazeera.com reported that the family is now mourning the loss of the 26-year-old while simultaneously welcoming the new member of their household.
