"After my husband and my daughter were injured, they (Israeli army) asked me to leave the house and go to the south. I had no choice but to do what they asked of me because they were very brutal in their treatment. After my injury as well, I asked to take my son Wael, and I took him and headed to the south. I am still in great shock. I suffer terribly. Honestly I just hope that I will receive any news about them, just to know that they are fine."

For 8 months, I have been pleading to receive any news about my husband and my daughter."

STORYLINE:
Reem Ajour says she last saw her husband and then 4-year-old daughter in March, when Israeli soldiers raided a family home in northern Gaza. She is haunted by those chaotic last moments, when the soldiers ordered her to go – to leave behind Talal and Masaa, both wounded.
Eight months later, the 23-year-old mother still has no answers about their fate. The military says it does not have them. Troops leveled the house where they were staying soon after the raid.
"It is very difficult. I am tormented every second,” she said.
But the military has not made clear how it keeps track of everyone it separates, arrests or detains.
