Okay kiddo, you know how sometimes you and your friends might argue over a toy or something, right? Well, imagine that happening between two big groups of people, the Israelis and the Palestinians, but instead of just arguing, they sometimes use violence.
The Israelis and the Palestinians have been living in the same area for a really long time, and they both think that they have a right to live there. But because they have different beliefs and history, they often don't get along and this can turn into fighting.
Sometimes the fighting is between just a few people, but other times it can involve lots of people and even weapons like guns and bombs. This is called violence and it can hurt people and cause damage to buildings and homes.
Because the Israelis and Palestinians have been fighting for so long, there have been many violent incidents and it can be hard to know who is right and who is wrong. It's important to remember that violence isn't the solution to problems and there needs to be peaceful ways for them to resolve their disagreements.
So while it's important to understand what's happening, always remember to be kind to others and try to solve problems without using violence.
