life in Gaza is a constant gauntlet of
Israeli sniper fire, military rockets and
army bulldozers. No one is safe. In light of
the escalating tensions, we're bringing back
one our most moving documentaries, a
hard-hitting expose of life in the Occupied
territories. We speak to the children caught
in the crossfire and find out the true cost
of Israel's targeted assassinations policy.

| Gaza Tunnels - Israel/Palestine |
 |
Mar 2008
Most of Hamas' weapons are smuggled in
through tunnels between Gaza and Egypt. These
tunnels are usually dug by children, who know
they could be killed at any moment.
Every night, 14 year old Said scrambles down
a narrow shaft leading to a tunnel. He'll
spend the next eight hours digging without a
break. It's claustrophobic, difficult work.
The heat in the tunnel is unbearable and the
more they advance, the harder it becomes to
breathe. At any moment, the tunnel could come
crashing down, burying them alive. That's not
the only danger. "Sometime the Egyptians
shoot gas into the tunnel that might kill
us", states Ramdan. "There are risks of
electric shocks and the Israelis might bomb
the entrance". Since Hamas seized control of
Gaza, the borders have been closed. The
tunnels are the only way to import goods into
the territory. "They're a gold mine!" states
Said. But to his disgust, most of the profits
go to other people. "We do all the work, then
they swindle us", he complains. Once the
tunnel is nearly ready, "other people will
open it, do the trafficking and make more
money than us". The money he does make will
enable Said to support his entire family. But
everytime he goes into the tunnel, he knows:
"You are digging your own grave".

Oct 2007
With Fatah and Hamas so divided, will the
recent peace talks achieve anything? There
are warnings Hamas will attempt to disrupt
the summit by stepping up rocket attacks.
From a wooded valley in Gaza, Al Aqsa
fighters light a rocket fuse. Everyone runs
for their lives as the rocket shoots off into
Israel. Later, safe in his office, Al Aqsa's
commander shows us how he selects targets in
Israel. "We obtain details from Google Earth
and check them against our maps". For Gaza's
residents, life seems to get harder by the
day. Supplies are dwindling thanks to an
economic blockade. Fatah claims Hamas is
turning Gaza into a brutal police state. It
has ordered all medical staff to go on
strike. But for the sick, denying them
medical care is a step too far. As one women
laments; "What have we done to deserve this?"

| Palestinians break out of Gaza - 23 Jan 08 |
 |
Gaza is often described as the world's
largest prison.
If so, then the world is witnessing one of
the biggest ever breakouts.
Tens of thousands of Palestinians have poured
across the border into Egypt, after a series
of explosions breached the steel wall which
divides the two territories.
Al Jazeera's Jacky Rowland is on one the Gaza
side of the Rafah crossing.
