On 30 March, Palestinians in the Gaza Strip demonstrated peacefully on Land Day for their right to return and denouncing Israel’s illegal siege of the Gaza Strip.

The Israeli army attacked with extreme violence. 17 protesters were killed in cold blood by snipers and over 1,400 were injured. We call for action to support the demand for an independent investigation.

But we also know that there is no justice under occupatin, so we demand
– The end of the occupation
– The recognition of fundamental rights and full equality of Palestinians in occupied Palestine ’48
– Respect, protect and implement the rights of Palestinian refugees to return to their homes and property (UN General Assembly Resolution 194)

Now that there is renewed indignation, we must respond as advocates of justice for concrete action. Come to this action, share this event, mobilize!

FRANCAIS

Le 30 mars, les Palestinien.ne.s de la bande de Gaza ont manifesté pacifiquement à l’occasion de la Journée de la Terre, faisant ainsi valoir leur droit au retour et dénoncer le blocus illégal de la bande de Gaza par Israël.
L’armée israélienne a réagi avec une violence extrême.
Dix-sept des manifestants ont été tués de sang froid par des tireurs d’élite. Plus de 1400 autres ont été blessés.
Nous appelons à l’action pour soutenir la demande d’une enquête indépendante sur les événements.

Mais nous savons aussi qu’il n’y a pas de justice sous l’occupation, alors nous exigeons:
– La fin de l’occupation et de la colonisation des territoires palestiniens (Résolution 242 du Conseil de sécurité des Nations Unies)
– La reconnaissance des droits fondamentaux et la pleine égalité des habitants arabo-palestiniens habitant les territoires de 1948;
– Respecter, protéger et promouvoir les droits des réfugiés palestiniens à retourner dans leurs foyers et leurs biens (Résolution 194 Assemblée générale des Nations Unies).

Maintenant qu’il y a un regain d’indignation parmi les décideurs politiques, nous devons réagir en tant que défenseurs de la justice afin qu’ils puissent prendre des mesures concrètes. Venez nombreux à cette action, partagez cet événement, mobilisez-vous!

NEDERLANDS

Op 30 maart demonstreerde de Palestijnen vreedzaam ter gelegenheid van de Dag van het Land. Ze deden dit om hun recht op terugkeer op te eisen, en de illegale blokkade van de Gazastrook door Israël aan te klagen.
Het Israëlische leger reageerde met enorm veel geweld.
Zeventien van de demonstranten werden in koelen bloede gedood door sluipschutters. Meer dan 1400 anderen raakten gewond.
We roepen op tot actie om om de vraag tot een onafhankelijk onderzoek naar de gebeurtenissen te ondersteunen. Maar we weten ook dat er geen gerechtigheid bestaat onder de bezetting, daarom eisen we:
– Het einde van de bezetting en kolonisatie van de Palestijnse gebieden (Resolutie 242 Veiligheidsraad Verenigde Naties)
– Het erkennen van de fundamentele rechten en de volledige gelijkwaardigheid van de Arabisch-Palestijnse inwoners van Israël;
– Het respecteren, beschermen en promoten van de rechten van Palestijnse vluchtelingen om terug te keren naar hun huizen en bezittingen (Resolutie 194 Algemene Vergadering Verenigde Naties).

Nu er opnieuw verontwaardiging klinkt onder beleidsmakers, moeten we als verdedigers van rechtvaardigheid reageren opdat ze echt actie ondernemen. Kom met veel naar deze actie, deel dit evenement, mobiliseer mee!

STOP ISRAEL’S KILLING OF PALESTINIANS!!!
END ISRAEL’S ATTACKS ON GAZA!!!

JOIN THE VIGIL THIS TUESDAY 17:30-18:30 OUTSIDE CENTRAL LIBRARY, ST PETERS SQ. MANCHESTER

Organised and supported by Palestine Solidarity Campaign, Manchester Palestine Action, & University of Manchester BDS Campaign

Yesterday, at least 15 Palestinians have been killed and more than 1,400 others wounded by Israeli forces as thousands marched near Gaza’s border with Israel in a major demonstration marking the 42nd anniversary of Land Day.

Israeli forces fired live ammunition at protesters and used tear gas to push them back from a heavily fortified fence, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.

Adalah, a legal centre for Palestinian rights in Israel, condemned the Israeli army’s use of force and stated:

“Live gunfire on unarmed civilians constitutes a brutal violation of the international legal obligation to distinguish between civilians and combatants.”

After the vigil we will be supporting the Stand-Up To Racism vigil Stand-Up to Islamophobia FaceBook details here

On Friday, 30 March, 16 Palestinians were killed and over 1416 injured by the snipers and gunmen of the Israeli occupation army o the occasion of Land Day. Around 30,000 Palestinians gathered at the “borders” of the Gaza Stip for a peaceful march under the slogan, “The Grand March of Return,” to demand the right of return of Palestinian refugees to their homes and villages of origin and the application of UN Resolution 194 and to break the siege imposed on Gaza for 11 years.

We demand:
The immediate expulsion of all Israeli diplomats from Ireland.
– the end of the siege
– an end to the massacres of the population
– sanctions on Israel

Since 30 March, Palestinians in Gaza (two-thirds of whom are refugees) have started a March of Return to peacefully protest the inhumane conditions to which they are subjected by Israel.

Even before the start of the march, the Israeli state planned to respond with extrajudicial killings. Snipers along the border executed 17 unarmed Palestinians, with over 2000 injured!

We call on the largest number to demonstrate everywhere in France and join the BDS campaign initiated by the Palestinians.

BDS France Saint-Etienne

Depuis le 30 mars, les palestiniens de Gaza (dont les 2/3 sont des réfugiés) ont entamé une marche du retour pour protester de façon pacifique aux conditions inhumaines auxquelles ils sont soumis par Israël.
Avant même le début de la marche, l’état israélien a prévu de répondre par des meurtres extra judiciaires. Des snipers placés le long de la frontière ont exécutés 17 palestiniens qui n’étaient pas armés… plus de 2000 blessés également !
Nous appelons le plus grand nombre à manifester partout en France et à rejoindre la campagne BDS initiée par les Palestiniens

On March 30, Israeli occupation forces murdered at least 15 Palestinians and injured more than 1,400 using live ammunition, rubber-coated steel bullets, and huge quantities of tear gas against tens of thousands of protesters. Tank and air attacks were also carried out against unarmed demonstrators.

The massive protests in cities across Gaza — the world’s largest open-air prison — were held on Land Day, which commemorates a 1976 Palestinian demonstration against the ongoing confiscation of their lands inside the 1948 borders of Israel. Six Palestinians were killed by Israeli troops and many others wounded in the 1976 protest.

The March 30 actions were called under the banner of “The Great March of Return” and the demand that Palestinian refugees be allowed to return to their lands seized in the ethnic cleansing that made way for the creation of the state of Israel. The actions are set to continue for six weeks, culminating on May 15, the 70th anniversary of Al-Nakba (the Catastrophe) which commemorates the dispossession of the Palestinian people. It is our duty in the US to do all we can do to end US support for Israeli repression of Palestine’s right to resist displacement and genocide. We must not sit idly by.

ANSWER condemns in the strongest terms this massacre of unarmed Palestinians demanding self-determination and freedom. We also condemn US imperialism for giving the green light to Israel’s continued crimes against the Arab and Palestinian people. The US should end all aid to Israel!

We invite all justice minded people to join us in condemning Israel’s massacre and brutal oppression of the Palestinian people. Come and join us as we speak out against Zionist crimes and for Palestinian self-determination, rally against US-Israel collusion in Palestinian genocide, and hold a vigil to mourn all the precious lives stolen by Israel and fight to free Palestine.

If your organization would like to endorse or speak please send us a message or email bostonanswer@gmail.com

Long Live Palestine!

CONTRA LA MASACRE EN GAZA
POR EL DERECHO AL RETORNO DE LOS REFUGIADOS PALESTINOS
CONTRA LA OCUPACIÓN GENOCIDA DE PALESTINA

La represión militar israelí deja a 16 palestinos asesinados y 1.416 heridos en Gaza durante el Día de la Tierra Palestina.
Tal como fue anunciado por el ejército israelí, hoy se llevó a cabo una verdadera masacre utilizando municiones de guerra en contra de manifestantes palestinos que conmemoraban el Día de la Tierra y el Derecho al Retorno.

Desde GAZA y hasta este minuto, el Ministerio de Salud ha informado que 16 palestinos asesinados y 1.416 heridos por disparos de los soldados y francotiradores israelíes.

En Gaza se ha declarado emergencia sanitaria y se ha convocado a la población a donar sangre.

Las manifestaciones se llevan a cabo durante la jornada de la conmemoración del Día de la Tierra y por el Derecho al Retorno del pueblo palestino a sus hogares de origen de donde fueron violentamente expulsados.

¡El baño de sangre anunciado por Israel se está cumpliendo!

Cabe recordar que Israel desplegó a francotiradores en las zonas de las manifestaciones. De hecho, todos los palestinos asesinados fueron ejecutados por disparos desde larga distancia. Los hechos en terreno demuestran la falsedad de la información israelí que pretendía justificar estos crímenes señalando que los soldados fueron atacados por los manifestantes.
El día de ayer, el jefe de personal del ejército israelí señaló que utilizará munición real para dispersar las manifestaciones programadas para el viernes en la Franja de Gaza. ¡Los resultados de esta amenaza están a la vista!

Muhammad Abu Amro, 22 años, fue asesinado por francotiradores israelíes mientras realizaba un dibujo alusivo al Derecho al Retorno del pueblo palestino en las arenas de la playa de Gaza, a pesar de estar a una distancia de varios cientos de metros de los francotiradores y militares israelíes.

También se han llevado a cabo masivas protestas y marchas en todas las ciudades y pueblos palestinos, tanto en Jerusalén, en Cisjordania ocupada y en los pueblos de Palestina ocupada el año 1948.
