Context added by this archive

A boy in a keffiyeh holding the casing of a bomb, standing in what is left of his house. The caption says who used the bomb, which is more than most of them do. It does not say who he is. Jabalia again — the camp that had one army base inside its boundaries in 1987 (CP-1987-005).
