These Young Palestinians In Gaza Are Parkouring On Rubble As An Act Of Resistance Against Israel’s Genocide
For these young men, parkour serves not only as a distraction but an act of resistance.
A group of young Palestinians in Gaza are doing parkour on rubble as an act of resistance against Israel’s genocide.
Before the war began on Oct. 7, the boys trained in facilities such as gyms and safer areas three days a week.
Since then, they have become accustomed to their surroundings and turned the debris into their very own parkour course.
Ranging from different types of somersaults and flips, they continue to do so despite a significantly higher risk of injury.
According to the UN, Israel has destroyed over 135,142 homes in Gaza.
However, the young Palestinians use parkour as a distraction and to show resilience against the occupying forces.
