Text on screen: “Who are you, pioneer?”

The video shows children participating in the PLO Supreme Council for Youth and Sports summer camps speaking

Girl: “My sister is Martyr Mai Afaneh (i.e., terrorist)”

Boy 1: “My friend is heroic Martyr Fayez Damdoum (i.e., terrorist).”

Boy 2: “I am the friend of Martyr Fayez Damdoum, who died as a Martyr on Oct. 1, 2022.”

Boy 3: “Martyr Yamen Jaffal and Martyr Nassim Abu Roumi (i.e., terrorists) are my friends.”

Text on screen: “And who are our Martyrs?”

The children repeat the same line one after the other:

Children: “Our Martyrs are moons and not numbers”
