Photos from the Quarter
ABSTRACT

This sample of photos, selected from hundreds viewed by JPS, aims to convey a sense of Palestinian life during the quarter from 16 May–15 August 2017. In this issue, Palestinians initiate a boycott of Haram al-Sharif after Israeli authorities change Jerusalem’s delicate status quo; electricity shortages wrack Gaza as Israel’s ten-year blockade of the Strip continues; and Muslims celebrate Ramadan and the Eid al-Fitr holiday.
