We spoke to the family of a Palestinian toddler who was detained along with his father near the yellow zone in central Gaza earlier this week.
They say he was handed back to them after ten hours, with burn injuries on each leg.

This is our God: Jesus, King of Peace, who rejects war, whom no one can use to justify war. He does not listen to the prayers of those who wage war, but rejects them, saying: “Even though you make many prayers, I will not listen: your hands are full of blood” (Is 1:15).

vides ut alta stet nive candidum
soracte, nec iam sustineant onus
silvae laborantes, geluque
flumina constiterint acuto
see how soracte stands deep with glimmering snow, and how the laboring woods no longer bend beneath their burden, and the streams are halted by the sharp frost
