Police have made 2700 arrests under terrorism laws in the UK for protesting peacefully against the banning of Palestine Action. This cannot go unchallenged. Add your name to the letter. https://t.co/E5Lyca1Hyw
Ben & Jerry’s co-founder says Unilever is silencing them from speaking against Gaza’s genocide. He’s now protesting in the streets to reclaim the company’s soul—founded on justice & peace. Corporate censorship can’t bury the truth or mute conscience.

More bravery I have seen than any politician worldwide. @ UN why are you letting this totalitarian state block any humanitarian aid, for decades? Stop standing by as the war crimes multiply and they murder hundreds of thousands aid workers, journalists and innocent people!
All eyes on the #FlotillaGaza - May these peaceful activists reach Gaza in safety to provide the aid the UN and International Governments failed to provide the victims of war in Palestine.
All of our boats are still sailing - and we are so close now!
We are nearing 110 nautical miles from Gaza, around the point at which the Madleen was intercepted in June.
Some of us managed to sleep a bit this morning. This is important, because Israel is probably deliberately trying to drive us to exhaustion.
We believe the Spanish navy is still nearby, although Italy has left. It’s reportedly keeping some distance, but planning to continue to 24 miles from the coast of Gaza 🍉🍉
We feel calm and determined.
As the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla - the largest initiative of its kind - is expected to enter a high-risk zone in the Mediterranean where Israeli forces may attempt to intercept it as they did before.
The flotilla, carrying urgently needed food, medicine, and humanitarian supplies, set sail after nearly two years of Israel’s relentless attacks on Gaza and 18 years of an illegal blockade that has left Palestinians in Gaza deliberately starved and deprived of essentials, as part of Israel's ongoing unlawful occupation of the Palestinian territory.
The persistent inaction of states in the face of Israel’s genocide against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip has forced activists from across the world to take peaceful measures to break the siege.
States have a responsibility to guarantee the flotilla’s safe passage. They must step up pressure to protect the flotilla and demand an end of Israel's genocide, and of its unlawful blockade once and for all.
