Mona, the head teacher at the Al Tafawk Centre and the children and families with her, were told that they must leave the Arab-American University outside Jenin, where they were staying on April 11th.
They have now been given a reprieve but they must now pay for their accommodation and many families are simply unable to afford it. Where they will go?
