Children from the Al Saraya Kindergarteners in Al Khalil/Hebron
whom CPT Palestine accompanies

 

Mothering God, shelter the children of Al Khalil/Hebron. In your love and mercy wipe the memory of violence from their minds and heal their spirits.

On 3 November 2019, Israeli occupation forces fired 20 stun grenades and tear gas canisters as well as eight rounds of live ammunition in the area of the Salaymeh neighborhood while children were on their way to school. Soldiers also shot tear gas directly into a schoolyard.

May God’s justice roll down like a mighty river over this land.
