Dear colleagues

 

            I would like to inform you, that the WFTU announced on January 1st, an International Campaign for the release of Palestinian prisoners, especially children, from Israeli prisons. This initiative is an important internationalist campaign for the release of more than 155 children who are currently detained in the occupation prisons. Also the WFTU demands the release of 4.500 Palestinian political prisoners, among whom women, elderly, ill and disabled persons. Their rights are being violated by the Israeli state, there is no protection of their health with the adequate health care and no protection measures or vaccination against the Coronavirus during the COVID-19 Pandemic.

           

            The TUI PS Europe of the WFTU participates in the campaign and addresses a call to all the trade union organizations of public sector of Europe to express their solidarity with the Palestinian prisoners by organizing different actions :

 

- Protests with the materials and demands of the WFTU international campaign

- Online events of solidarity and information

-Support the WFTU Resolutions to the United Nations and Other International Organizations for the protection of the rights of Palestinian Children.

- Submission of Resolutions to the Embassies of Israel in every country
