The National Committee for the Return and Breaking-the-Siege Marches has issued an international call for solidarity events worldwide on June 8 to demand an end to Israel’s oppression and occupation of Palestinian people,to push for a ban on the supply of weapons to Israel and to support the public boycott of Israeli products.
Protests marking two historic dates are planned along Israel’s massive “security fence” in Gaza June 5 and 8. June 5 is the 51st commemoration of the Israeli invasion and occupation of Gaza, the West Bank and East Jerusalem and on June 7 of the same year, Israel seized control over Jerusalem’s Old City. The committee of Palestinians coordinating the ongoing, mass protests in the Gaza Strip are calling on human rights advocates around the world to mobilize June 5 and 8 in solidarity.
