United Kingdom: Violence against civilians in London

Houston Texans linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair honoured 2½-year-old Palestinian girl Maryam Ghanem by writing her name on his eyeblack during an NFL game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in London on Sunday. Maryam was the sole survivor of her family after an Israeli strike hit their home in Gaza City, killing her mother and leaving the toddler with severe burns. Despite facing a league fine for previous tributes to Palestinian children, Al-Shaair continues to draw attention to their suffering.
