Over 24,000 Palestinians killed in Gaza. Over 60,000 injured.

FROM: STOP THE WAR COALITION

 

"These aren’t just harrowing statistics from 100 days of destruction and suffering, but each number has a story behind it. A life cut short. Dreams and ambitions that can now never be realised. 

 

"Those killed by Israeli bombardment include over 250 doctors. Over 200 teachers. Over 130 UN workers. Over 80 journalists, silencing those showing the world the horror on the ground. 

"That’s why this weekend, we’re asking you to join your local demonstration to show in towns and cities across the UK that the world is watching Israeli war crimes - and call on our government to support an immediate ceasefire.

"Politicians who fail to call for a ceasefire are complicit in the bombardment of Gaza. Just this week, the South African government announced it was launching legal claims against the US and the UK for complicity in Israeli war crimes in Gaza - something the British media has refused to report. That’s why we must redouble our efforts to call for a ceasefire and campaign for Palestinian rights: the right to self-determination, the right to national liberation and the right of return for refugees."
