Remembering a family newly made homeless

This week a house was illegally demolished by the Israeli army in the West Bank. The soldiers enjoyed breakfast on their land once they had destroyed their house. That much is not news, it happens most days. The newly homeless family have suffered this already, in 2021. A group of volunteers from UK and elsewhere had helped them rebuild it in 2022, so it was a particular sadness that their home, and our act of solidarity, had been destroyed. A group of us will soon come together to decide how to distribute any of the extra funds from the Joyful Sale, and if the family might receive a small part of the proceeds to show them that we are aware of the injustice done to them.
