Abstract: The article focuses on the crisis of missing persons in Gaza amid ongoing conflict, illustrating this through the story of Hassan, a 16-year-old autistic boy who disappeared in 2024. It highlights the challenges faced by families like Hassan’s in locating missing relatives due to destroyed infrastructure, lack of forensic resources, and restricted access imposed by Israeli authorities, including the blockade that prevents entry of essential identification equipment. Gaza’s health and forensic systems rely largely on visual identification, with no biometric databases or DNA testing capabilities, complicating efforts to confirm deaths or detentions. Estimates from various organizations suggest that between 9,000 and 15,000 Gazans remain missing, with families enduring prolonged uncertainty and limited official information, while international law obliges Israel to account for missing persons and provide information to families.
