Family of slain Muslim boy: 'We're not in war'
Officials say six-year-old Wadea Al-Fayoume was fatally stabbed in Illinois by the family's landlord, who allegedly attacked the boy and his mum because of the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict and because they were Muslims.
The boy's uncle, Yousef Hannoun, spoke at the funeral of his nephew and pleaded for children to be saved.
