Sanad was the first baby born at the Red Cross Field Hospital in Rafah.
His family named him Sanad, meaning "support" and "strength".
Now, looking forward to his third birthday, his parents’ wish for him is simple: to grow up safe & have a chance at a better life.
This week marks three years since an unprecedented escalation of violence in Israel and the occupied territories that has seen countless lives shattered, thousands of people killed and injured, and families torn apart.
