CNN —Roba Abu Jibba looked shell-shocked as the doctor delivered his news: She couldn’t have the operation she desperately wanted.
“I came here, and now they said I won’t be able to get a prosthetic,” she told CNN between sobs.
The Israeli military told CNN they carried out “a precise strike” after their troops came under fire from that location.
Looking back at that night, Abu Jibba told CNN that she blamed both Israel and Palestinian militants for what happened to her family.
Her aunt who accompanied her to Qatar told CNN the young woman now prefers solitude, and rarely goes outside.
