Alt Text

A child's drawing in blue and black pen, pencil, and colored pencils of three small houses that have all caught fire after being bombed by a helicopter seen overhead. As ordinance falls from the helicopter, an armed individual on foot fires a machine gun at several other, unarmed figures. One of the figures lies on the ground bleeding out, as indicated by the red lines coming off their body, and a second is also bleeding from a wound but has not yet fallen.
