Nakba 76: Join the global day of action this Saturday, 18 May

Over 500,000 Gazans have now fled Rafah as the Israeli assault on the city enters its second week, pushing back hopes that an urgent ceasefire agreement was in reach. The situation in the rest of Gaza remains just as dire, and videos circulating this week of Israeli settlers blocking and destroying aid destined for the Strip are a stark reminder of why we need to keep up the pressure on our government to do more to bring this crisis to an end.?

As we prepare to commemorate the 76th anniversary of the Nakba, or Catastrophe, where hundreds of thousands of Palestinians were ethnically cleansed from their lands during the creation of the state of Israel, we call on all supporters to join the national demonstration in London this Saturday, 18 May.?

This year's Nakba event will be part of a global day of action, expected to span hundreds of cities in dozens of countries across all six continents. Despite the failure of Britain, the US, and so many other countries to bring an end to Israel's genocide in Gaza, the global peace movement in solidarity with Palestine continues to grow!
