The broken football dream in the war "Palestine Bailey" Suleiman was attacked by Israeli troops

In this round of the Pakistan-Israel conflict, a large number of Palestinian civilians were killed in Israeli attacks. Not long ago, Suleiman Obed, who was praised by fans as "Palestine's King of Football Pele" and once played in the world court with the Palestinian national football team, was attacked and killed by Israeli troops while receiving aid supplies for his family. This news made his family and Palestinian fans very sad.

Suleiman's wife Dua: He is everything to me, everything to me. There is also the aura of Suleiman on this dress, the aura of a deceased relative, the aura of a hero who died for the sake of his children.

Sureman Obed, 41, has represented Palestine in the international football arena. He has scored more than 100 goals in his career. Even in the artillery fire of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, he still did not give up on football.

Suleiman's daughter Inas: He loves football, do you know what it means, he loves football. If someone says "Let's go play football", he will jump up and say to us immediately, "I'm go play football." He would come home happily at the end of the day and we would ask “Did you score a goal today”. Dad would tell us "I scored a goal" and he scored several goals. He makes us happy and makes us proud of him.

However, the joy brought by football cannot survive the fire. Earlier this year, Suleiman's home was destroyed by the Israeli army, and in a video of that time he walked among the ruins, trying to find remaining memories of his career.

Sureman Obaid: Although they were all blown up, these are all my sports career and what I remember.

Suleiman's wife Dua: The whole house is gone, nothing is left, not even a piece of his clothes left, and the clothes he wears to the beach are gone. Nothing is gone, his trophy can't be found, he can't be found. He was very disappointed that day, really lost. He said, "It's all." "The house is gone, nothing is worth being sad."

As the Israeli army strengthened the blockade of the Gaza Strip, the local humanitarian crisis became increasingly serious. Suleiman was forced to go out to find aid for the sake of his family's survival. On August 6, at a material distribution point of the so-called "Gaza Humanitarian Foundation" supported by the United States and Israel, the Israeli army attack made his life freeze at the age of 41 forever.

Suleiman's wife Dua: Sports in Gaza were once beautiful. But after the war broke out, sports became a tragedy. We started out with Suleiman’s sports friends, the murder of football coaches and players, and now they (the Israeli army) have killed Suleiman again. The Palestinian Football Association said that Suleiman's death in the Israeli attack was a huge blow to the Palestinian sports community, especially the football community. During this round of Pakistan-Israel conflict, hundreds of athletes have died in the Gaza Strip.

Palestinian Football Association official Mustafa Saiyam: Israeli attacks killed 665 athletes, including 323 football players. These huge numbers reflect how Israel has hurt Palestinian sports and Palestinian athletes. We also want to talk about sports facilities, more than 80% of sports facilities were completely destroyed by the Israeli army.
