#SanctionIsrael: Join the social media storm happening now!

On 18 September, the UN General Assembly (UNGA) overwhelmingly voted for imposing sanctions on Israel for the first time in 42 years!

Tomorrow, 24 September, heads of state will gather at the UNGA for the annual high level debate. 

It is now time for us, grassroots organizations, movements and solidarity groups, as well as individuals who have been mobilizing to end Israel’s genocide in Gaza and to dismantle its decades long apartheid and settler-colonial regime against all Palestinians, to take this resolution from being a promise on paper to a global reality! ­
Join the social media storm happening now!
Now is the time to pressure your government to respect its obligations under international law, pay heed to the unified Palestinian civil society call and #SanctionIsrael. 

As Israel’s livestreamed genocide in the illegally occupied Gaza Strip against 2.3 million Palestinians reaches its first anniversary, as its aggression and ethnic cleansing in the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, intensify, and as it pushes the region in a catastrophic direction, join us in pressuring governments, especially those in the Global South, to isolate genocidal Israel and impose meaningful sanctions on it to hold it accountable for its crimes. Failing to do so would plunge us all into a world where “might makes right.”
