Alt Text

A child's pencil and crayon drawing on white paper of a rural village under attack by military forces. A helicopter and an airplane flying over a row of houses are dropping ordinance, which has set the houses on fire, while two men in military uniform who are armed with machine guns patrol the area. A truck with a mounted machine gun and a person on horse- or camelback are seen coming down a road toward the village, shooting and killing a civilian on the way. A small amount of Arabic writing is seen at the top of the page.
