Block the Boat: Urgent Call for Action

More weapons destined for use by Israel in its genocide against 2.3 million Palestinians in Gaza are currently en route. On Sunday, 26th May, 2024, Israel carried out one of its bloodiest massacres yet, in open defiance of the explicit order of 24th May, 2024, by the ICJ that Israel cease its military offensive in Rafah immediately.

Israeli warplanes, funded and supplied by the US and Europe, pounded? a supposed “safe area” in Rafah where forcibly displaced Palestinians slept in plastic tents, setting the entire area aflame, murdering at least 45 and injuring 100s more, mostly women and children. Many were burned alive.

As you read this the Danish vessel Marianne Danica is crossing the Mediterranean on its way to Israeli ports, bringing in more deadly weapons. The arms flow and genocide profits of the military industry are thriving. Help us to stop it now!

We must escalate pressure to stop this genocide in Gaza! Only more people power will lead to wider boycotts, divestment and lawful sanctions to force the US-Israeli genocidal axis to stop and to ultimately help us dismantle the underlying regime of oppression.

Take action now:

1. Block the boats carrying weapons to Israel by pressuring involved governments to stop and search all vessels suspected of carrying such arms, prohibiting these vessels from flying their flag, and holding implicated shipping and insurance companies accountable.
2. Mobilize to pressure your government and parliament to immediately impose a #MilitaryEmbargo on Israel.
3. Join groups, particularly workers’ unions, in peacefully disrupting the transport of weapons, weapon parts, and other military equipment to Israel..
