The sound of a blast cut through the air on Gaza's beach, drawing people out of seafront buildings to see a crowd of terrified children sprinting along the sand. The children continued to run, but some of them were left behind. Afterwards, emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra gave names of the four, all cousins: Ahed Atef Bakr, aged 10, Zakaria Ahed Bakr, also 10. The other children, some crying, and others bleeding, ran into a hotel, where staff and journalists scrambled to help them.
