Contact sheet No.29, frames 17 & 18. I was in Jabalya refugee camp on the outskirts of Gaza City. Mohammed was very nervous and apprehensive about taking me there. There had been an IDF incursion during the night. They smashed the place up. Palestine TV station's presenter was making a broadcast.

Other narratives arise on contact sheets between muliple images. Between sequences of shots above and below, sometimes unrelated scenes.

Mohammed and I went to the end of the street (behind the tv presenter) That's where it became dangerous. Turning left at the junction we got caught in a traffic jam. Then people started shouting that the tanks were coming, the crowd turned and started running towards us... instant chaos. I ran, legs turning to jelly...
