Some pictures from today, March 30th, 2023, of the Land Day protests in Gaza - we mark the 47th annual Land Day in commemoration with the six Palestinians killed by Israeli occupation forces during demonstrations over land confiscations in 1976, I highly recommend watching this short video to get a better understanding of what the Day of the Land means to Palestinians. From River to Sea - Palestine will be free 🇵🇸

these photos were taken by mohammed salem and klaus thymann (click pic), showing the rise of parkour in gaza’s shati and khan yunis refugee camps. unemployment in the camps is high, and with little to do and limited resources, some have turned to parkour as a means of escape.

as abdullah enshasy, who cofounded gaza parkour team with mohammed aljkhbeer, explains, “i have witnessed war, invasion and killing. when i was a kid and i saw these things, blood and injuries, i didn’t know what it all meant.”

adds aljkhbeer, “there is a big relationship between parkour and barriers that we’re surrounded by in the gaza strip. there’s the blockade, walls are everywhere. …parkour gives us a sense of freedom and allows us to endure these conditions without getting deeply depressed.” 

for a sport that is literally about overcoming obstacles and living beyond imposed physical restraints, parkour has perhaps even greater resonance in the the narrow, politically and militarily confined gaza strip, which is home to a densely boxed in population of 1.7 million palestinians.  

but enshasy notes, “at first people didn’t accept us. they would say, ‘you jump like monkeys and you climb buildings like thieves’.” but as their facebook page explains, parkour is about breaking conventional paths in life and finding your own.

This Christmas (date varies between Churches), please think about both Palestinians and Armenians, two of the oldest Christian communities in the world, who, for over 100 years, have been facing mass deportations and genocide.

On 19 September 2023, Azerbaijan started bombing Artsakh, which was already under blockade since 2022. 20 civillians were killed and more than 200 were injured. By 3 October 2023, 100.617 Armenians have been forcibly displaced.

On 7 October 2023, "Israel" has cut off all the water and electricity supply to Gaza, which was already under blockade since 2007. Since then, Gaza has been heavily bombarded, the north of the strip becoming unlivable. 25 December 2023 marks the 80th day of a war waged against civillians. More than 1.8 million people are internally displaced, 2.3 million people are living in dangerous conditions, risking starvation, illness and infection. More than 20.400 people have been killed and more than 50.000 people have been injured, half of them being children.

Palestinian author from Gaza, Hiba Abu Nada, wrote on Facebook days before she was killed by an Israeli strike:

نحن في الأعلى نبني مدينة ثانية، أطباء بلا مرضى ولا دماء، أساتذة بلا ازدحام وصراخ على الطلبة، عائلات جديدة بلا آلام ولا حزن، وصحفيون يصورون الجنة، وشعراء يكتبون في الحب الأبدي، كلهم من غزة كلهم. في الجنة توجد غزة جديدة بلا حصار تتشكل الآن.

Translation:

We, high above in the skies, are building another city filled with doctors without patients or blood, teachers who aren't yelling at students in overcrowded classrooms, there are new families without pain or sorrow, there are journalists capturing heaven, and poets writing about eternal love - all of them are from Gaza, all of them. In heaven, there is a new Gaza without siege forming now.
