As the Muslim world welcomes the holy month of Ramadan, orphans in Gaza remember their parents and loved ones who were killed during the Israeli War on Gaza.

Children gathered together to paint murals to depict what they had witnessed during Israel’s rampage through the besieged Strip, many of whom had seen their fathers, mothers or both perish before their eyes.

This is yet another cry out to the international community from the children of Gaza – stop Israel’s illegal siege and help the Palestinian people win back their freedom, their rights.

Other paintings by children in Gaza have found their way out of this besieged land in the hope that people around the world will see the traumatic effects of Israel’s bombardments and siege on them and their families. 

That is not propaganda.  The reality of Israel’s military occupation and siege of Gaza must be exposed if there is any hope of ending the nightmare world in which these children live.
