Drawing of a child named Hassan who was shot with a machine gun. Other people in the village were abducted after Sudan's military helicopter came to bomb the villages.

Alt Text

A child's pen sketch on graph paper of a few objects, people, and scenes, most notably a machine gun shooting at a human figure that is labeled "Hassan" in Arabic. There are also depictions of a helicopter, a house with a pointed roof, a flagpole, a tree, a few quadrupedal animals, a woman, and one human figure that appears to have a rope tied to a second. The animals appear to be two horses and a camel.
