Two million women, men & children in Gaza are being purposefully starved. 14,000 babies are at risk of dying in the next 48 hours. What is needed from govt is an immediate end to its complicity in Israel’s genocide: a full arms embargo, comprehensive sanctions & concrete action

This statement yesterday from the Foreign Secretary reflects the mounting pressure faced by the British government to end its complicity in Israel’s genocide. 1/6 ⬇️🧵

Two million women, men and children in Gaza are being deliberately starved by Israeli blockade. Last week, seven of the world’s leading genocide scholars unanimously agreed that Israel’s actions in Gaza constitute genocide. 24 hours ago, the UN humanitarian chief warned that

Amongst thousands of Israeli airstrikes, the British govt assessed just 413 - they decided *only one* potentially violated intl humanitarian law - one involving foreign aid workers. What does this say about how govt views Palestinian life? Our Director, Sara, discusses ⬇️

We wrote to the Home Secretary with 6 other orgs to resist the unprecedented move to proscribe Palestine Action. Govt is using proscription powers to strangle domestic resistance to complicity in genocide - this escalating criminalisation must end. Link britpalcommittee.co.uk/jointletterpal…
