Amid the ruins of their home destroyed by Israeli occupation forces, Palestinian women in the Nuseirat camp continue to bake bread for displaced families, despite facing harsh conditions.
"The Australia Palestine Advocacy Network (APAN) condemns the Coalition’s renewed efforts to vilify Palestinians, entrench apartheid, and legitimise Israel’s illegal occupation."
"Opposition Leader Peter Dutton’s announcement that a Coalition government would reassess the security clearances of Palestinians fleeing genocide, and introduce so-called “antisemitism” questions in Australia’s citizenship test is an appalling pursuit of yet more racist, authoritarian policies by the Coalition."
"Targeting Palestinian refugees for “security vetting” without evidence is racial profiling. Palestinians fleeing a genocide should be offered sanctuary, not suspicion."
"Australia’s own security agency, ASIO, confirmed no links between Palestinian refugees and domestic threats. Dutton’s rhetoric not only ignores this but actively stokes fear and racism in the community."
"Furthermore, the Coalition’s proposed citizenship test changes, under the guise of addressing antisemitism, risk weaponising anti-racism to silence legitimate criticism of Israeli state violence."
"Real opposition to racism does not mean loyalty to a violent apartheid regime – it means standing against all forms of injustice and discrimination, including Israel’s brutal oppression of Palestinians."
"APAN is also concerned by Coalition messaging that its “position remain(s) that West Jerusalem is the capital of Israel.”
"This position flies in the face of global consensus and undermines international law and Palestinian self-determination."
"It also endorses Israel’s illegal annexation and erasure of Palestinian identity, and rewards a state committing war crimes and crimes against humanity."
"Dutton’s comments must be seen for what they are: deliberate and dangerous attempts to exploit humanitarian tragedy for political gain and scapegoat a dispossessed people, while greenlighting genocide and apartheid."
"All people across this continent – across political lines – must reject this hate-filled agenda."
"Australia must be on the side of human rights and international law – not occupation, apartheid, and genocide."

📍From Manchester 🇵🇸
"Palestinians in Gaza are enduring one of the darkest chapters of the war since its onset in October 2023. With hostilities reigniting on 18 March, Israeli forces have intensified their military operations across the Strip, while forcibly displacing people en masse with evacuation orders, and attacks and killings of medical and humanitarian workers."
"These actions, combined with the ongoing full siege of the Gaza Strip for over 50 days, are not isolated they represent a systematic effort to dismantle its health system and any effective and principled humanitarian response."
"Since the war started, Israeli forces imposed imperfect mechanisms to protect civilians and humanitarian workers. But they have been nothing more than smoke and mirrors, with over 50,000 Palestinians killed according to the Ministry of health and at least 409 aid workers killed, according to the UN."
"Today, even these nominal systems are no longer in place. Evacuation orders by Israeli forces are forcibly transferring Palestinians into densely packed, makeshift zones, and humanitarians have no safety guarantees."
Franz Luef, MSF emergency coordinator

"Tens of thousands of Palestinian children have been killed by the Israeli regime in Gaza. But tens of thousands of Palestinian men and women have also been killed by the Israeli regime in Gaza. Those who omit that latter fact are contributing to the dehumanisation of the Palestinian people."

"Israeli troops shot from 'point-blank range' when 15 aid workers were killed in Gaza in March, new leaked documents show. How many war crimes must be committed before our Government takes real action. We need widespread sanctions on Israel - on arms, trade and individuals. Now."

"The UN estimates that approximately 92% of Gaza's residential buildings, or about 436,000 homes, have been damaged or destroyed since October 2023. There are 11,000 bodies still buried beneath the rubble. Famine is spreading. AND THE WORLD IS LOOKING THE OTHER WAY!"
