Summary / Abstract (Note) | GAZA-Mohammed Alhwani stands in the courtyard of his school, gazing casually beyond he view of the camera. He wears a baggy sweatshirt and a backpack slung over one shoulder. He looks careless, free, and very much his 12 years of age. Several hours later, Mohammed rests next to a jerry-rigged electricity panel, yards beneath the earth, with hard, weary eyes-buried in the claustrophobic heart of one of Gaza's smuggling tunnels, an intricate network of underground passageways that illegally- under the laws of at east three nations- pass under international borders from Egypt into the Gaza territory. |
