My name is Farah Mohamed Jabbarin.
I'm 16 in my senior school year. I was born in Shiyab,
Arbutum. Wherever we turn our heads, there's a settlement.
Here, a settlement. There's
a settlement near our home.
On this side, another settlement. When I go to school, I
don't feel safe. I'm scared.
I hold my phone in my hand the whole way, so I call my parents
for help if settlers attack even my school
the military came a month ago and demolished part
of it they issued a demolition notice for the rest
of it after they demolish it where would
we study settlers come
at night seeking confrontation they tried to burn our home
there's fear at home at school on the road we live life
in fear at the same time we have no
alternative. This is our life.
