"127 children killed per-day in Auschwitz in 5 years. 139 children killed per day in Gaza in 135 days. Just like there can be no justification for the Holocaust, there can be no justification for the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. Both deserve the same condemnation."

Mohamad Safa, the main representative at the UN ECOSOC

"How long can the world tolerate the Israelis abusing the Palestinians, taking away their land and their freedom?"

Act for Palestine Foundation Condemns Arson at UNRWA Headquarters in Occupied East Jerusalem

"Palestinians are targeted 'as such'. Life is destroyed in all its manifestations. Every human right becomes a target. Every life reduced to a punchbag for dehumanization. The monstrosity of our century."

Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur on oPt

"There was widespread agreement after the 2nd World War that such a terrible Holocaust should never happen again. Today we are witnessing a Holocaust in Palestine and not one EU Member State has broken Business links with the perpetrator Israel, they have supported the Genocide."

Mick Wallace, former Member of the European Parliament

"Palestinian journalists have been our eyes & ears covering the atrocities of the war on Gaza & bringing a human face to describe the impact. They have worked heroically & against all odds."

"Together with humanitarian workers they have paid a heavy ultimate price. More than 230 of them have been killed. Gaza is the deadliest place in the world to be a journalist, just as it is the deadliest place to be a humanitarian worker. Since the war began, international journalists have been banned from entering Gaza independently - something that is fundamental to media freedom."

"The ban fuels disinformation campaigns & polarised narratives. It aims at questioning firsthand data & eyewitness accounts, including the testimony of international humanitarian organisations, as well as at dehumanising Palestinians. The ban on international journalists has lasted too long, lifting it is overdue."

Philippe Lazzarini, Commissioner-General of UNRWA

"Israel is weaponising starvation, coercing humanitarian organisations, and systematically erasing Palestinian towns. Aid is blocked. Doctors are pressured. Communities are wiped off the map. These are not accidents. They are crimes. End the blockade. Stop the genocide."

Australia Palestine Advocacy Network (APAN)

"Thousands of innocent Palestinians are still being held in Israeli prisons, hundreds of bodies have not yet been returned, but abducted Palestinians apparently aren't worth a mention to our foreign minister."

"The numbers don’t lie: Israel has never observed any ‘ceasefire’ in Gaza, ever. And for Trump to grandstand calling this ‘peace’ is an insult to humanity, quite frankly."

Patrick Henningsen, Geopolitical analyst and journalist

"Israel’s blockade is starving Gaza. Countries are calling for it to be lifted. Australia’s Foreign Minister has said almost nothing. Silence while people starve is complicity. Tell Penny Wong to break the silence, demand the aid be allowed in, and act now."

Australia Palestine Advocacy Network (APAN)

"The government needs to know we haven’t forgotten the Palestinians. The killing goes on, aid is still being blocked and the board of peace is a monstrous collection of tyrants and tycoons."
