Bisan Akram Saleh is a young Palestinian woman from Gaza. She graduated in 2023 from the Applied Science University College with a degree in Interior Design. She loved life, enjoyed outings, gatherings, food, and spending time with family and friends, and her laughter was truly unforgettable.
Bisan had been religiously observant since childhood, wore modest clothing, did not use makeup, and was highly organized and disciplined in her life. She was respectful to everyone and had a very kind and compassionate heart.
She came from a large family, with four brothers and two sisters: Musab, Muhammad, Imad, Akram, Afnan, and Noor. Musab is married and has a daughter named Julia, and Afnan is married with a son and a daughter.
Bisan was engaged to a young man from Saudi Arabia. He planned to travel to complete her travel arrangements, but after the outbreak of the war, he suggested holding their wedding outside Gaza. Bisan refused, as she wanted to celebrate with her family and friends in Gaza before any departure or exile.
On October 13, Bisan’s family was forced to leave their home in Tal al-Hawa, which they had purchased after a lifetime of renting, suddenly and without any warning. Bisan was unable to take the device she had prepared with great effort for her wedding, which was scheduled for October 22.
The family was displaced and went with Musab’s family to Deir al-Balah, staying at their sister Afnan’s house, which had about four floors, until November 9.
On that day, without any prior notice or warning, a house with more than 40 people inside was completely destroyed.
Bisan was martyred and still has no grave to this day.
Her sisters, Noor and Afnan, along with Afnan’s children, were also martyred.
Musab and Aya were killed, leaving their daughter Julia as an orphan.
Bisan’s brother, Mohammad, was also martyred.
May God have mercy on all of them.
Those who remain from Bisan’s family are her mother, Imad, Akram, and Julia. May God give them patience and compensate them with goodness.

If you want, I can also make a more emotional, narrative version in English that reads like a story rather than a literal translation. Do you want me to do that
