Palestinian kindergarten films its kids play-clashing with IDF, becoming ‘martyrs’

The clips from the Al-Tofula Kindergarten in Beit Awwa in the southern West Bank were published on the TikTok video-sharing service Tuesday, according to the Washington-based Middle East Media Research Institute watchdog.
