In pictures: Palestinians grieve
Rana Qaimari, teacher

No one can express our feeling today. It is more than just a sad day, because we lost our leader.

President Arafat was the first one to fight for Palestinian recognition. He fought for Palestinian rights for all Palestinians around the world. He gave all his life and all his effort for the Palestinian people, but he died without achieving what he wanted, a free Palestinian state.

We will continue united, and I hope we will find somebody to try as hard as him for Palestinians.
