I know you are all very concerned at the humanitarian and human rights crisis in Gaza.
Amnesty International has unequivocally criticised the Israeli authorities and Hamas and is proactively lobbying the Irish Government, the Israeli Ambassador to Ireland and Hamas.
On Friday at 6pm outside St Stephen’s Green we will be inviting members of the public to light a candle to commemorate every person who has been killed since December 27th in this conflict.
We have also created a series of actions for our online Action Centre, www.amnesty.ie that you can take:
- Email the Israeli Embassy to call for an end to the unlawful targeting of civilians in Gaza
- Call on Hamas to cease firing from behind residential homes in Gaza and stop the unlawful targeting of Israeli civilians
- Call on the US Embassy to recognise the responsibility of the US Government
- Call on our Taoiseach to use all diplomatic measures at his disposal to end the crisis
Every voice raised in protest matters. We live in hope that a ceasefire will be forthcoming, but until then, make sure you play your part.
Sincerely
Kieran Clifford
