Situation

Dear Readers--

There was a general strike called for today, so most people stayed home and many shops are closed. There were some demonstrations, road blocks and tire burning. Nothing in our area, or even close. The army is everywhere and seems to be on top of things. Tom's school was closed and UNRWA let staff go home early.

We have a VHF radio tuned to the UN security station and are keeping our eyes open. There is hope things will be back to normal tomorrow.

Not to worry, at least not at this point!
