We look at Palestinian children’s right to play in war-ravaged Gaza and in the occupied West Bank.
All children – wherever they are in the world – deserve to be children: to explore, laugh and play, especially since play is a vital path to their learning and growth. But what about Palestinian children’s play time – or lack thereof? This is a human right taken from them by Israel.
