This is a thing i doodled today since we are close to 4000 children dead in Gaza today.
Tried to avoid gory imagery… and try something… a little unusual.

As of 3 November, according to Ministry of Health data, 2326 women and 3760 children have been killed in the Gaza strip, representing 67% of all casualties, while thousands more have been injured. This means that 420 children are killed or injured every day, some of them only a few months old.

The use of watermelon as a symbol of resistance in Palestine dates back to the Six-Day War in 1967, when Israel seized control of the West Bank and Gaza and annexed East Jerusalem. The Israeli government made public displays of the Palestinian flag a criminal offense in Gaza and the West Bank.
