Schoolgirls in Ramallah today

Palestinian schools have been shut because of the weather for the past couple of days and will probably be shut tomorrow too. Look at this picture UK teachers and you'll understand part of the reason why Palestinian schools shut when the weather is severe! This is a picture from Ramallah today - You can tell these are school children from the uniform.

Today it is colder in Jerusalem (3 degrees) than London (11 degrees).  Palestinian schools have no heating inside...
