The newspaper "Palestine" publishes a personal profile of the martyr Jamal Mahmoud Abu Kamil, Director of Police in Gaza Governorate, through the account of his mother Yasmine Abu Kamil. The article reviews details of his daily life and his relationship with his parents and family, before his martyrdom on August 13, 2026, following an Israeli bombardment that targeted his vehicle on Al-Rashid Street, southwest of Gaza City. The mother describes her son as the "pillar of the house," caring for his paralyzed father and taking him to the mosque every Friday in a wheelchair. He would visit her daily to break his fast with her and drink coffee before going to work, and his constant response to her requests was: "Yes, mother." The article touches on Jamal's loss of his son Mahmoud, who was martyred during the war, and his wife is now in her third month of pregnancy. The mother confirms that her son did not live a different life despite his position, but rather moved into an apartment and divided it with curtains to live with his family. The mother recalls the moment of his martyrdom, when her grandson Riyad called her to tell her the news. She describes his face after martyrdom as "very white" and his hands as "soft and white." The article indicates that the vehicle was bombed, and that Jamal tried to take cover next to a wall before the bombing reached him.
