Another Take: The story of Hind Rajab

Every Saturday, we revisit a story from the archives. This originally aired on Feb. 16, 2024. None of the dates, titles, or other references from that time have been changed.

Six-year-old Hind Rajab spent three hours on the phone with Palestinian emergency services, crying for help, stranded in a car under Israeli fire in Gaza. Her relatives were killed while trying to escape. 12 days later, she was found dead. What happened after Hind’s phone line went dark?
