Gaza Graduation: Orphans Honor Parents at Ceremony
Imagine a special day, graduation, where kids celebrate finishing school.
But in Gaza, it was different.
Over a thousand children, who lost their parents due to the conflict, had a graduation.
They wore special clothes and held pictures of their moms and dads, who couldn't be there.
The ceremony was organized by a place called Al Wafaa Village, a home for orphans.
This was the first group of kids graduating since the home opened.
It was a mix of joy and sadness, celebrating their hard work while remembering their parents.
Over 1,000 orphaned children participated in a graduation ceremony in Gaza.
The ceremony was organized by Al Wafaa Village, an orphan sanctuary in Khan Younis.
Children wore caps and gowns and held photos of their deceased parents.
The ceremony took place on Monday.
It was the first graduating class since the center opened in January.
