DEAR FRIEND, 

THE SITUATION IN GAZA COULD NOT BE MORE URGENT. We are hearing that MPs are
receiving unprecedented amounts of letters and emails from their
constituents calling for the UK to #STOPARMINGISRAEL and for a
#CEASEFIRENOW. These actions are making a difference. 

YES I’LL EMAIL MY MP [3]

Working with our partners in Parliament and civil society CAAT has helped
to table EARLY DAY MOTION (EDM) 177 [4] which CALLS ON PARLIAMENT TO
IMMEDIATELY SUSPEND ALL ARMS EXPORT LICENCES TO ISRAEL. Email your MP and
call on them to sign the motion and end UK arms exports complicity in war
crimes in Gaza. 

This week, on Tuesday 12th December, Parliament will also debate ARMS
EXPORT LICENCES FOR SALES TO ISRAEL [5]. Make your voice heard! USE THE
LETTER TEMPLATE BELOW TO WRITE TO YOUR MP TO DEMAND THAT THEY TAKE ACTION
AND SPEAK OUT AT THE DEBATE.

YES I’LL EMAIL MY MP [3]

ISRAEL IS USING UK ARMS EXPORTS IN A GENOCIDE AGAINST THE PALESTINIAN
PEOPLE. The UK is complicit in these crimes by supplying these weapons for
decades, and by offering political and military support for Israel to
commit the gravest human rights violations with impunity.

UK INDUSTRY PROVIDES 15% OF THE COMPONENTS IN THE F35 STEALTH COMBAT
AIRCRAFT THAT ARE CURRENTLY BEING USED IN THE BOMBARDMENT OF GAZA. Since
the government was elected in May 2015, CAAT’s research shows that the UK
has licenced over £472m worth of arms to Israeli forces. This includes
licences covering components for aircraft, helicopters, drones, bombs,
missiles, military technology, armoured vehicles, tanks, ammunition, and
small arms. 

If you need more information please take a look at OUR NEWLY PUBLISHED
SUPPORTER BRIEFING:

- jointly created by Palestine Solidarity Campaign and War on Want - to
help you in your campaigning and activism.

underestimate the impact you can have. Only with all of us acting in
solidarity together can we bring an end to this horrific bombardment.

IN SOLIDARITY AND WITH LOVE, 

KATIE
