This is a growing concern because of this Israeli military escalation, which is only intensifying. We are in the town of Arab Salim, which was hit twice by Israeli air attacks. A home was hit and destroyed, and a young woman, Saja, was killed, and we are now at her funeral. People are gathering, waiting for her coffin to arrive, so there is concern that there is going to be some sort of escalation. They believe that Israel is looking for a pretext in the run-up to its October elections, looking for some sort of military win.
