There’s always fuel.

Very tired. No sign that the situation is improving. There are no spare gas canisters (for cooking and heat) in town (fortunately we've got two) since the roads are all shut.

Yesterday a school in Tulkarem was shot up, with two students killed and sixty injured. Zababdeh may shift its public schools because of this, moving the boys' school (next to an Israeli military training camp) into the girls' school, but in the evenings. It's going to be a long month.
