outstretched holding empty containers for food.
John,
World-leading medical journal The Lancet has just estimated that a
horrifying 186,000 Palestinians may have already been killed in Israel’s
onslaught, including those buried under rubble and dying of starvation.
And the true number could be even higher.
We must not look away. In the last few weeks, Israel has unleashed bombs
on the Bureij refugee camp and a school sheltering Palestinians while
blocking efforts to end this nightmare. And our governments are fueling
this disaster by sending Israel weapons.
Lawyers are working around the clock, preparing to take Italy’s
state-owned weapons giant Leonardo to court – one of the biggest companies
shipping weapons to Israel. But they need us behind them if they’re going
to beat this billion-dollar giant!
If all of us chip in the cost of a coffee we can rush them cash
immediately to pay expensive court fees and support Palestinian
plaintiffs.
John, we can win this and set off a domino effect triggering
powerful lawsuits around the world. But we need you to make it happen.
Can you chip in today to end this 9-month siege?

We’ve never seen anything like this. Israel’s merciless onslaught on Gaza
has caused the highest daily death toll in any conflict *this century* –
and it shows no sign of stopping.
Over 12,000 children have been killed and ten children lose a limb every
single day in Gaza.
The world’s highest court has issued a damning ruling and a beacon of
hope: Israel must change course NOW to prevent genocide. This verdict sets
a hugely important precedent – it opens the door to a wave of legal cases
that could challenge weapons sales to Israel on the basis that there’s a
real and imminent risk they are being used to commit genocide.
That’s why we have a real chance of winning this. But collecting
compelling research and filing legal challenges is time-consuming and
expensive. If all of us chip in today, we can help turbo-charge our
partners’ heroic work with a mega legal fund to get Italy to cut off
Israel’s supply of deadly weapons and support other groundbreaking work
like this.
Every second we wait, more lives are on the line. Can you chip in today to
end the bloodshed?

John, Palestinians’ lives are filled with terror, day in and
day out. Together, we can make sure weapons exporters have no other option
but to stop arms sales to Israel. Are you in?
Thanks for all that you do,
Miriam and the Ekō team
