The image of Jihad Al-Suwaiti from Beit Awa, in the West Bank has gone viral now and netizens say that they cannot hod back their tears.
Suwaiti is seen sitting by the Intensive Care Unit’s (ICU) window of Hebron State Hospital where his mother was undergoing treatment for COVID-19.
According to reports, 73-year-old Rasmi Suwaiti, died on Thursday evening, shortly after receiving an unexpected visit from her 30-year-old son. The son would wait by the window every night to watch his mother.
