Download An Israeli teen and a young Palestinian talk

An Israeli teen and a young Palestinian talk to each other.

Tamar, 17 from Israel and Mohammed, 20, who lives in Gaza spoke to 5 Live’s Stephen Nolan and each other about their view of the conflict and their hopes for peace.

Tamar, who had never spoken to someone from Palestine before said: "we’re all human at the end of the day", she went on to say "if the people talk to each other we can maybe find a solution we can maybe end this conflict”.

Mohammed, who had also never spoken to an Israeli admitted, “She changes the image that I have about Israeli people… because from what I see Israeli soldiers are always bombing us”.

This conversation first went out on BBC Radio 5 Live Stephen Nolan on 15 May, 2021.
