Yes, Gaza Strip Parkour Is Seen As A Distraction From "Violence And Militancy"

Mohammed and Abdallah are apparently "Gaza's leading practitioners of parkour" which they see as "set apart from political and religious factionalism, from violence and militancy."

"When we practise [parkour] we free ourselves," explains Mohammed. "It is as if we're transported to another world." [ Al Jazeera English]
