Episode Details

In the West Bank village of Umm al-Khair, Palestinian children face a daily struggle to reach school due to new barbed wire fences erected by Israeli settlers. The fences, part of a larger land grab, have led to increased attacks and movement restrictions, causing fear and uncertainty among the villagers. Despite demands for access, the children have faced tear gas and sound grenades, and some have been forced to take a longer, riskier route. The situation has escalated with at least 35 Palestinians killed this year by soldiers and settlers, with settlers alone responsible for 8 deaths. As settlements continue to grow, families in Umm al-Khair are determined to hold onto their way of life amidst rising violence and state-backed impunity.
