Description of the missing person
When he disappeared, Jamal left behind two daughters and his wife. His hobbies included breeding pets, inventing decorations [note: is this right?? this doesn’t sound right.], and bodybuilding. He loved helping others and caring for his family and siblings. If he got angry, he would calm down quickly. He aspired to open a painting store, to establish something special [note: ???], to buy a home, and to secure the best possible education for his children.
Circumstances of the Disappearance
Jamal lived in Tripoli, in north Lebanon, and after learning that a war would be starting in the camps soon, he headed to Sabra to remove his father-in-law from the camp. Two days after he headed to the camps, the battle started there and they didn’t have any food remaining, so he picked up supplies as he was on his way there. After his legs were injured by an exploding shell, he was treated at Gaza Hospital in the camp, and he was told to rest and not leave the camp. After the bombing and the battle intensified, he managed to remove his father-in-law from a shelter for the elderly, but he stayed behind because of his leg injury with his nephew for three days. He was then taken to an unknown location.
