As the murderous State of Israel intensifies the bloodshed of the Palestinian people, the World Federation of Trade Unions condemns the fierce attacks against civilians and the forthcoming attack in Rafah.
After more than 4 months of genocidal attacks and forced evacuations to “safe areas” of the Gaza Strip, now the massacre is continued and intensified with the relentlessly bombing of Rafah, where 1.5 million civilians are crammed into a small piece of land.
These inhumane actions are contributing to the worsening of the conditions experienced by the Palestinians, and are preventing access to the humanitarian aid necessary for survival. The suffering Palestinian people are subjected – once again – to the unprecedented brutality, with mass murder of civilians, uprooting from their land and ethnic cleansing.
We have no illusions that the murderous state of Israel will respect the International Humanitarian Law. What we demand, is that the United Nations and the international community will take urgent decisions to prevent this new Nakba in the Palestinian land. At the same time, we condemn the hypocrisy of the USA and their allies, who pretend to be the protectors of the international law and order, but they silently or openly support this genocide.
The class-oriented trade union movement, once again expresses its unwavering solidarity with the Palestinian people, and reaffirms the readiness to intensify its actions in every possible means, until the end of the occupation and the liberation of the Palestinian land.
