Red Line for Gaza

Day after day we have watched the horrors in Gaza unfold on our screens as red line after red line is crossed by the Israeli government. Let’s demand our government takes action to stop this – while we still have a chance.

Now is the moment to act

We – the people of the UK – must speak out. In our masses, right now. Let’s build our own red line that is impossible for our government to ignore.

We stand together

We are joining together with other organisations in the UK, to powerfully demonstrate that we stand united against the atrocities being inflicted on people in Gaza.

Sign up to our email list to be the first to hear about how to get involved in upcoming days of action for Gaza.

Which red lines have been crossed?

STARVING PEOPLE IS A RED LINE

Israel is starving civilians in Gaza. They’re using starvation as a weapon of war by blocking the delivery of food and aid, including for women and children. Everyone in Gaza is at risk of famine.

KILLING CIVILIANS IS A RED LINE

Israel has been killing men, women and children seeking safety. They have attacked schools, hospitals, and refugee camps leaving people to perish in burning buildings.

TARGETING CHILDREN IS A RED LINE

No child is responsible for the violence we’re seeing right now. Yet children have been targeted and killed by Israeli bombing in Gaza. We have all seen the horrific injuries young children have sustained.

KILLING AID WORKERS IS A RED LINE

Humanitarian workers have been blocked from delivering life-saving aid to people in Gaza. They have also been killed in deadly attacks on marked humanitarian vehicles. It’s not only a violation of international humanitarian law, it's a violation on people simply trying to help.

KILLING THE HUNGRY IS A RED LINE

People desperately trying to collect bags of flour have been shot and mown down with tanks by Israeli forces. People have been penned in, in dangerous and degrading conditions, just to try to get something to eat.

And many more red lines continue to be crossed by the Israeli government and military. The UK government must take action now and end their complicity in these crimes.

The situation in Gaza is beyond words, but we have to keep trying to tell the truth, because silence is complicity and giving up is not an option.”
