Shadi Khoury, a 16-year-old pupil at the Quaker Friends’ School in Ramallah and grandson of Sabeel’s co-founder, Samia Khoury, was kidnapped in the early hours of
Friday, the 18th of October, by Israeli occupation forces. He was beaten, blindfolded and dragged away from his home by twelve Israeli soldiers and security agents. He was taken for interrogation to the ‘Russian compound’.
- Lord God, we raise our voices together with Shadi’s grandmother Samia as she cries out, ’Until when will this grave injustice go on?’. We pray that Shadi may be swiftly released from prison and restored to his family. We pray for an end to the injustices perpetrated daily on the Palestinian people and their children by the Israeli occupation forces. Lord, in your mercy..
