"Military Work" - said the solider

Pictured here: CPT received a call at 1.30am to inform about an ongoing night raid by the Israeli military in a printing shop. The soldiers stole 6 computers and 10+ hard drives. The military also threw printed material ready to be delivered on the ground and stepped on it, leaving the imprints of their boots as proof of their total disregard of the shop owner's means of living.

All my life

Pictured here: These children have passed through this checkpoint all their lives. Now, they also have to face it every day on their way to and from school and experience the always increasing restrictions. How much longer will the checkpoint restrict their lives?
