Since July 8, 2014, Israel had launched an intense and disproportionate bombing campaign and land incursion of the Gaza Strip, “Operation Protective Edge”.

In Gaza, 1.7 million Palestinians live in what is often referred to as an “open-air prison.” All of Gaza’s borders are restricted, including the side bordering the Mediterranean Sea, which is controlled by Israel. Israel has imposed an eight-year blockade on Gaza, making it extremely difficult and even impossible for Palestinians to go in and out of the Gaza Strip. Access to water, electricity, and basic goods have also been extremely limited.

In the latest operation, approximately 500 Palestinians have been killed thus far, the vast majority of which are civilians, including children and women. Thousands have been injured. About 20 Israeli soldier have been killed.

Israel has dropped bombs on civilian homes in Gaza, killing entire families. Schools, hospitals, and rehabilitation centers have also been attacked, killing students, doctors, and disabled patients.

Thousands of Palestinians have been left displaced and homeless due to of the damage to their homes from Israeli airstrikes. Electrical damage from the attacks has further crippled already inconsistent access to electricity in Gaza.

Palestinians have lived under 47 years of Israeli military occupation, and 66 years of ongoing colonization, dispossession, and apartheid.

Please take action to support human rights and end Israel’s impunity. http://tinyurl.com/pfsnncc

From the Latin America Solidarity Committee in Milwaukee:

Miriam Miranda, OFRANEH leader in Honduras was kidnapped between 7:30
and 8:30 the morning of July 17. She has since been rescued by members of her
community but those members and Miriam remain trapped in Vallecito due
to paramilitary guards in the area. See the alert update below and
please take the measures called for to the best of your ability.
Thanks, Babette

Vicki Cervantes (Relayed) Miriam and other
OFRANEH people were rescued by community
To HSNmembers HSNlavozchicago@yahoogroups.com
Today at 2:55 PM
Miriam and other OFRANEH people were rescued by community members and
are at Vallecito now. They can’t leave because of the continued
presence of the armed paramilitary guards. There are some campesino
groups mobilizing in the Aguan and other areas to go to help guarantee
their safety. The request is for people to continue to call Honduran
officials and (I suggest also to call the US Embassy) to insist that
the safety of the OFRANEH group is protected and guarenteed so that
they can leave Vallecito safely and that there is no violence against
the community.
