Alt Text

A child's drawing in blue pen and orange colored pencil of multiple human figures, half of whom are holding and firing large rifles. One of the armed figures is shooting at a house that has caught fire, while two other armed people aim at the unarmed figures. One of the armed assailants seems to be pushing a woman off a cliff at gun point. Human figures with their hands up appear to be fleeing at the bottom of the page. A short note in Arabic is written in black pen in the very center.
