On one wall the artists depicted a woman holding her son. On another a boy is painted with tears in his eyes. A third shows a girl, seen through a mirror, combing her hair.
"Out of suffering, pain, and siege, we derive hope, art, and victory," said artist Hussein Abu Sadeq. "We drew on the rubble so we can get the message through using a brush and colour."A Palestinian girl walks past a graffiti drawn by Palestinian artists on a house destroyed by Israel, in recent Israeli-Gaza fighting, in Deir Al-Balah in the central Gaza Strip June 8, 2023.
In May, Israel launched a campaign against commanders of the Islamic Jihad militant group who it said had planned attacks in Israel. In response, the Iranian-backed group fired more than 1,000 rockets, sending Israelis fleeing into bomb shelters. In Israel, two people - an Israeli woman and a Palestinian labourer - were killed by Palestinian rocket fire in Israel.
