 A Gaza Diary, Scenes from the Palestinian uprising, Chris Hedges
Khan Younis is a dance, gray, concrete shantytown, the fl waters from sewers running down the middle of alleys.
Faqawi was born in Khan Younis, which was established in late 1949 to provide aid to the some 200,000 Palestinian refugees who had fled the advancing Israeli army in 1948, an army that pushed displaced villagers toward Gaza.
Mawasi, with some 5,000 villagers, was split from Khan Younis in 1972 when the Israelis began to build the Neve Dekalim settlement, one in a chain of eleven small settlements along the Gaza coast that include a tourist hotel, a golf course, and horse-riding trails.

 The Hindu : Sport : Younis Khan piles on the agony
When most thought Younis Khan was staring down a long, dark and empty stretch after the Mohali Test, the Pakistan vice-captain saw in his failures an opportunity to unlock the gate leading to success.
Sports is as much about conquering adversity as performing on the big stage and Younis' mammoth 267, the highest individual Test score by a visiting batsman in India, and Harbhajan's single Friday's spell of 29.5-7-79-6 were the high points of the second day in the third TVS Cup Test at the Chinnaswamy Stadium.
Partnerships are the heart of any innings and Younis was involved in four of them here — 324 in 533 balls (third wicket with Inzamam), 84 in 123 (fourth with Youhana), 58 in 96 (seventh with Kamran Akmal), and 61 in 122 (eighth with Sami).
