No matter where our editorial team is located, the conflict between Israel and Hamas and its impact on people in Israel and Palestine is something that engages and provokes debate. This week, we portray this issue from four locations and perspectives.
This week we therefore want to focus on four texts, three written by our editorial staff members, and one by Linn Davrin, recently returned from a time as a companion in the Israeli-occupied Jordan Valley of the West Bank.
– The grief doesn't have time to turn into tears. The wounds never have time to heal, Davrin reflects in his portrayal of life for Palestinians in the Jordan Valley.

Ireland's clear stance on the Palestinian cause distinguishes them among European countries. The fact that they themselves lived under British occupation is a contributing reason Jessica and Sophia tell Anna Lundberg, correspondent in Ireland.

The once obvious support for the country is no longer so undeniable as reports of deaths and Israeli abuses in Gaza pile up. Molly Adolfsson, correspondent in Berlin, has taken the pace of politics in the street space.
