National march for Palestine 15 Feb

The ceasefire in Gaza is fragile. Trump admitted it’s unlikely to hold and clearly the right in Israel don’t want it to.

 

In the two weeks since the Gaza ceasefire began Israel has done all it can to provoke the Palestinians. In the West Bank Israeli forces and settlers have killed at least 19 people, have destroyed infrastructure and demolished homes. Israel has continually breached the truce in Lebanon. And on Thursday its ban on UNRWA came into force, a ban that will be devastating for Gaza as refugees return north and try to rebuild their lives. Thousands more will die without UNWRA assistance, and the ceasefire, which includes the bringing in of aid, is likely to collapse.

 

As the world watched Gaza’s refugees walk to the destroyed north of the strip this week, President Trump called for the displaced millions to be forcibly relocated to neighbouring countries – a clear encouragement for the ethnic cleansing of over 2 million people, endorsed by Israel’s far-right finance minister as ‘a great idea’.

 

This is why we are marching from Whitehall to the US embassy on 15 February. Please do what you can to join us.
