T. said she decided it was her responsibility to speak out after repeatedly witnessing a colleague attempt to blur the “boundaries between education and political and religious indoctrination."

A Gaza-based United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) teacher revealed she faced threats for challenging pro-Hamas rhetoric in schools.
