Add to Lightbox DownloadNABLUS, ISRAEL, FEB 5, 2003: Palestinian children who have not had teachers for the last three weeks because they are not permitted to travel from the nearby city of Nablus, attempt to catch up on all their missed lessons after the instructors finally were permitted to cross the checkpoint for the first time today, February 5, 2003. When the teachers tried to go home, they were made to wait for nearly 4 hours at the barricade by Israeli soldiers. Not only do the students and teachers suffer difficulties with getting to their schools, but they also do not have books because of the road blocks. A British non-governmental agency recently reported that Palestinians are currently living in a state of extreme, worsening poverty and fear for their future. (Ami Vitale)
