In the West Bank village of Al-Sawiya, nestled between three Israeli settlements, students now have a safer journey to school thanks to a newly built road. For years, teachers at the local school have juggled dual roles: educators and protectors, navigating risks tied to the nearby settlements under Israeli occupation. 🌍
The village committee’s initiative to construct the alternative route aims to shield children from potential harm, turning a daily challenge into a story of community resilience. 🛣️ \"Our students deserve safety as much as they deserve education,\" one teacher shared, highlighting the project’s urgency.
This grassroots effort reflects how communities are taking action amid complex realities. A reminder that even small steps—like a new road—can make big waves. 💪✨
