Gaza city: The continued siege imposed by Israeli occupation forces and colonists on three homes in the town of Qusra, south of Nablus, for the 29th consecutive day has prevented a teacher and two children from attending school and kindergarten. Director of the South Nablus Directorate of Education, Samer al-Jamal, expressed concern over the situation.
According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, teacher Suhair Abu Rida has been unable to join her colleagues at Asma Bint Abi Bakr School in Qusra due to the siege on her home, leaving dozens of female students without lessons. Additionally, the siege has hindered two children from attending kindergarten, raising issues regarding the violation of children's right to education.
The Nablus Directorate of Education selected Qusra to launch the new academic year in a ceremony attended by Nablus Governor Ghassan Daghlas and representatives of official and local institutions. The event was intended to send a message affirming the residents' resilience and their commitment to their children's right to education.
Israeli occupation forces and colonists have continued to besiege three homes in the Ras al-Ain area of Qusra, preventing residents from entering or leaving their homes for nearly a month.
