On our way home, we stopped in Bethlehem and I saw two army jeeps and a car that passed them. I drove really slow. I used the blinker to sign I am passing and then passed the jeeps and suddenly they began shooting us.

Family members say the 305 Peugeot that belongs to the Saada family received 30 bullets. "All windows were smashed", Najwa tells us. I looked at my two daughters, I shouted to Christine. She did not answer. I saw the death of my daughter. She was 12 years only and they killed her. The car stopped 75 meters after". The injured family members were taken to the hospital through gate 300.

Najwa tells us about her daughter: "She is very smart. She studied a lot and had high grades. I do not believe that I do not have Christine anymore. She loves music, plays the piano and studied Hebrew at school"
