Going to School
At Al Tiwani in the South Hebron hills in the West Bank, Palestinian children from the small, neighbouring village of Tuba needed to be escorted to school by Israeli soldiers, and—when they failed to show up—by international peace activists such as the Christian Peacemaker Teams. When forced to detour, the children had to walk up to six miles to get from their small village to the central school.
Israelis from the Ma’on settlement overlooking the path had harassed the children by throwing stones at them.
