APALA's Statement on Israel and Palestine

11/30/2023

 
All Israelis and Palestinians deserve freedom from violence. They deserve mobility, safety, sovereignty, and the opportunity to thrive.  APALA deeply mourns the devastating loss of life in Palestine and Israel and utterly condemns attacks on civilians. We stand against antisemitism, Islamophobia, racism, terrorism and racially motivated violence in the United States and around the world.
​

According to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency report from November 28, 2023, 14,800 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip since October 7, 2023, and nearly 1,200  Israelis and foreign nationals were killed in Israel, while 1.1 million people were displaced and are sheltering in the Gaza Strip. We join the global labor movement and the International Trade Union Confederation in calling for a peaceful solution to the conflict in the Middle East as stated in the ITUC statement of October 20th (https://www.ituc-csi.org/middle-east).

APALA calls for an immediate permanent ceasefire and an end to the bombing of civilian infrastructure, the release of all hostages, and unimpeded humanitarian aid to all families affected by the violence.
