GAZA: GO FLY A KITE!

The very same sky that was darkened just half a year ago by Israeli bombers came alive last week as the children of Gaza had a day of kite flying.

There is a sense of power and freedom when a child flys a kite, two concepts totally alien in Gaza.

In the first image you can see remains of the destruction caused by the blitzkrieg, horrors that these children have to live with every day of their lives.

All photos were taken by Ayman Quader, a young photo journalist living in the Rafah Refugee Camp.
