No home, no school

, August 24, 2014

Homeless Palestinian children stand in a symbolic line organised by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) during an action to bring attention to the fact that the children cannot go to school, at a UN-run school sheltering displaced Palestinians from the Israeli offensive, in Gaza City on August 24. The Palestinian Ministry of Education said that while 700,000 students in the West Bank will begin the school year on time on Sunday, at least 500,000 students will remain away from classes in the Gaza Strip as the Israeli military offensive on Gaza continues.
