Killing of six-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab to be made into a movie

The killing of the six-year-old Palestinian girl Hind Rajab will be made into a movie, Variety reports.

The film will be directed by Oscar-nominated Tunisian director Ben Hania and is being produced by Nadim Cheikhrouha (Four Daughters), Odessa Rae (Navalny) and James Wilson (The Zone of Interest).

On January 29, 2024, Rajab was left stranded alone in a car near Gaza city after her uncle, aunt and four cousins were killed by Israeli shelling. For hours, she made desperate calls to the Palestine Red Crescent Society.

On February 10, when Rajab's car was eventually reached, both her and two paramedics were found dead.

Israel denied they were behind the attack. However, separate investigations from Sky News, The Washington Post and Forensic Architecture concluded that Israeli tanks were present and likely caused the death of Rajab, the two paramedics and her family members.

US student activists at Columbia University honoured Rajab by renaming a campus building 'Hind's Hall', while rapper Macklemore released a song with the same name, which you can listen to below.
