Incursion

Yesterday around 6.00 PM, Israeli forces (IDF) entered Tulkarem city centre with tanks. They stormed a coffee shop on our street and arrested all the people inside, 27 in total. There was quite a ruckus for a little while. Now the street outside our house is scattered with rocks - the Palestinian way of telling the IDF that they are not welcome.

In rock-paper-scissors, rocks break the metal scissors. In real life, rocks only get you shot in the legs by rubber-coated bullets.
