Israel is carrying out large scale military aggression in the illegally occupied West Bank. This comes just days after a shaky Gaza ceasefire agreement that Israel’s far-right government was finally forced to accept, according to Israeli media reports, following its failure to achieve its main objectives from its ongoing genocide.
Apartheid Israel imposed mass closures on Palestinian cities, towns, refugee camps and villages across the West Bank, erecting or shutting hundreds of military checkpoints, placing barriers and concrete blocks to close all main roads.
Israel’s occupation forces, working in close coordination with armed fascist settler militias, are now carrying out pogroms against Indigenous Palestinians.
At least 12 Palestinians were murdered by Israeli forces in Jenin so far as Israel launched a military assault on residents. During the ongoing assault Israel used airstrikes, drone attacks and live ammunition, firing on civilians and shooting medical staff, copying some of the criminal tactics unleashed in Gaza.
Across the West Bank, in villages including Jinsafut, Fanduq, and Masafer Yatta, Israeli settlers, under the protection of Israel’s occupation forces, rampaged through Palestinian villages, injuring many Palestinians and burning homes, cars, and businesses.
The pogroms came mere hours before Trump rescinded US sanctions against “extremist” Israeli settlers in the West Bank.
All Israeli settlements in the occupied Palestinian territory, including East Jerusalem, are illegal under international law. Furthermore, in July 2024, the International Court of Justice ruled that Israel’s entire occupation is illegal and that it is guilty of apartheid against Palestinians.
What can YOU do?
Palestinians everywhere need you to take meaningful action to stand in solidarity with our liberation struggle now by working to end international state, corporate and institutional complicity in Israel’s still-ongoing but less visible genocide and underlying its decades-old system of military occupation and apartheid.
Together, let’s end this!
1. PRESSURE YOUR GOVERNMENT TO IMPOSE LAWFUL SANCTIONS ON ISRAEL, INCLUDING A COMPREHENSIVE MILITARY EMBARGO.
This isn’t a choice but a duty. Sanctions on Israel were voted for by a global majority of 124 states on 18 September 2024 at the UN General Assembly.
2. PRESSURE GOVERNMENTS TO END COMPLICITY.
Join millions who are marching and peacefully disrupting business-as-usual.
3. FOCUS ON BDS PRIORITY TARGETS AND CAMPAIGNS.
Join us and build strategic boycott campaigns against companies among the BDS movement's priority targets. Demand that your university, city council, trade union, church, cultural center, among other spaces and institutions, respect the BDS guidelines and declare themselves Apartheid Free Zones.
4. DEMAND THE IMMEDIATE SUSPENSION OF APARTHEID ISRAEL FROM THE UN.
Israel has carried on its genocide in Gaza and its brutal aggression in Lebanon; it has systematically killed hundreds of UN staff and targeted UN peacekeepers and institutions; and it continues to escalate its ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in Gaza, the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the Naqab. It’s long overdue to kick Israel out of the UN and all international fora, especially the Olympics and FIFA.
Send an email to the President of the United Nations General Assembly calling for Israel to be suspended from the UN.
