DESCRIPTION: Ibrahim Suleiman, 42.
Ibrahim was severely injured by a cluster bomb when he was collecting fire wood on 9 March. He is/was an olive farmer and he was collecting the wood on a cold day in the olive groves when an unexploded M85 cluster bomb detonated blinding his friend and damaging Ibrahims leg, hand, right eye and his kidneys. He has undergone skin grafts and has metal pins in his leg to try to heal it back together. He has been unable to get up and work since the attack and he cannot afford any more needed operations. He has a wife and 7 children, most of whom still live at home. Ibrahim is photograped in his home, sitting on his bed in the living room. He hardly ever gets up due to his injuries, - only to get to the loo or to hug his wife.
