Pain is everywhere right now in the land between the river and the sea. But we at NIF are doing what we always do: finding the light in the darkness and working to help it grow.

It is so dark right now, especially as hostilities resume, but the moments when hostages were released over this last week help us hold on to hope.

It has been a horrific month. But there is only one future which promises an end to the horror. It is a shared one.
