“If I die, I want a loud death,” Hassouna posted on social media. “I don’t want to be just breaking news, or a number in a group, I want a death that the world will hear, an impact that will remain through time, and a timeless image that cannot be buried by time or place.”
Israel claimed that the strike targeted a Hamas member.
One day before her death, it was announced that a documentary about Hassouna’s life in Gaza during Israel’s assault on the Strip would premiere at a French independent film festival held alongside Cannes.
