THIS MORNING'S MASSACRE AT AL-MAWASI. TONIGHT: EMERGENCY DEMO - 6PM OUTSIDE MURIEL MATTERS HOUSE
We invite you to join us this evening at 6pm for an emergency demonstration outside Muriel Matters House to demand action and accountability following the horrific tent massacre in Al Mawasi in the early hour of the morning.
We are sickened and enraged beyond words that whole families have been obliterated in an instant by the dropping of 2,000 lb bombs on their heads while they shelter, after 11 months of terror and starvation, in tents!
Please see our statement here and below.
Nothing can justify another second of this slaughter.
We demand our leaders act to end to British complicity in war crimes against humanity.
Join us tonight in a show of rage and solidarity for our friends in Al Mawasi and all the people of Palestine.
Enough is enough!
In love and solidarity,
Hastings and Rye Palestine Solidarity Campaign
HORRIFYING AL MAWASI MASSACRE DEMANDS ACTION FROM LEADERS
We call on all our local leaders to condemn Israel's horrifying massacre in Al Mawasi last night and to act immediately to stop the ongoing genocide.
There is no justification for dropping 2,000 lb bombs on displaced families sheltering in tents in a 'safe zone' after 11 months of terror and starvation.
Bombs so powerful they obliterated whole families in an instant and left 7 metre craters in the sand.
Bombs dropped from F-35 fighter jets for which the UK supplies parts.
For the last three years the people of Hastings have developed close cultural, educational and friendship links with the people of Al Mawasi.
We cannot stand by while our friends are massacred in cold blood.
We demand action. We demand accountability.
We demand an end to British complicity in war crimes and crimes against humanity.
Apartheid Israel's reign of terror on the Palestinian people must end NOW.
MP Helena Dollimore and Hastings Borough Council must condemn these atrocities and make representations to the Foreign Office to end arms sales to Israel and impose sanctions now. They must also demand divestment from Israeli companies and those complicit in the illegal occupation and genocide in Palestine.
People of conscience in Hastings and around the world have had enough of this slaughter.
We are sickened, enraged and determined to do everything in our power to stop any more innocent lives being taken. We demand our leaders do the same.

ZOOM CALL WITH PALESTINE - BUILDING SOLIDARITY WITH THE WEST BANK
Thursday 12 September 6pm.
The largest invasion in the West Bank this week since 2002 is a reminder that Israel's expansionist goals do not end with Gaza. The ethnic cleansing of Palestine is rapidly escalating, which is why we must build and strengthen our links across the West Bank.
Please join us to hear courageous activists describe the reality they are facing right now of violent repression, settler violence, and the constant threat of military detention - and hear their proposals for co-ordinated global actions including protests, legal work and educational campaigns. Whether you are an individual campaigner or a representative of an organisation, join the discussion about what you can do to support global action in solidarity with the Palestinian struggle for justice. Register for meeting via this link.
