Such documentation enabled kin to amend public registers, resolve estate affairs, reach financial accounts, seek aid, or establish legal custody over minors.However, amidst intense Israeli shelling, the detainment of countless Palestinians, and recurrent widespread displacement, this situation completely transformed. Beginning in October 2023, the mechanisms for identifying deceased individuals, logging fatalities, and finalizing financial matters have been propelled towards ruination. “We are witnessing…
