Martyr artist Alaa Qaddoha gained wide fame, following his participation in the second part of the series “Heaven’s Gate” produced in 2021. He followed that up by participating in the series "Fist of the Free" directed by the martyr Muhammad Khalifa.

At dawn on Tuesday, Alaa was martyred, along with other members of his family, in an Israeli air strike that targeted him and his family in the Nuseirat camp in the central Gaza Strip.
