Over 1 million people have been forcibly displaced from their homes in Lebanon by Israel, that’s 20% of Lebanon’s population. The Gaza playbook used throughout its genocide against Palestinians is becoming ever more apparent in Lebanon. Please write to your MPs www.instagram.com/reel/DWUJgka...

"Caabu is needed more than ever" At our 7 March Iftar with @actionforhumanity.bsky.social in Manchester, @andyburnham.bsky.social, Mayor of Greater Manchester, reflected on his engagement with Caabu, and why, especially in our current political climate, Caabu's work remains so important.

Please do contact your MP, and if they've not added their name to this letter, encourage them to do so! caabu.org/news/news/11...

119 UK Parliamentarians call for further sanctions on Israel & total ban on all trade & interaction with illegal Israeli settlements, in letter to Foreign Secretary @yvettecooper-mp.bsky.social following more illegal Israeli gov measures in occupied State of Palestine. www.caabu.org/news/news/11...

Israel has introduced major legal changes to facilitate further confiscation of Palestinian land. I have joined MPs urging a total ban on trade with Israeli settlements and for further sanctions against settlers and settler groups. caabu.org/news/news/11...

Pleased to add my name to this important letter to call on further sanctions on Israel & illegal settlements

Given that the UK's position in the last 50 years is that settlements are illegal and Israel cannot annex the West Bank, banning trade with West Bank settlements is really the absolutely minimal ask. It's pathetic that it hasn't happened.

Denying entry to British MPs shows how far Israel will go to cover up what is happening in the West Bank. See Caabu's press release on Israel's denial of entry to Dr Simon Opher MP @simonforstroud.bsky.social and Dr @peterprinsleymp.bsky.social on a Caabu delegation. caabu.org/news/news/pr...

By omitting Israel’s history of crimes and discrediting Palestinian voices, the BBC’s Gaza coverage has failed journalistic integrity, writes @caabu.bsky.social's Malaka El Gammal 🔗 www.newarab.com/opinion/bbcs...

BBC Coverage of Gaza: Does it meet its editorial policy on accuracy and impartiality? caabu.org/news/news/bb...

Our condolences to the family and loved ones of Awdah Hathaleen, brutally murdered by an Israeli settler in his village of Umm al Khair in Masafer Yatta in the occupied West Bank. A powerful advocate for his community, who spoke to Parliamentarians on several occasions. He will be sorely missed.

Over 100 international NGOs including Caabu issued a statement urging governments to act to end Israel's mass starvation in Gaza: open all land crossings, restore the full flow of food and aid, end Israel's siege and agree to a ceasefire now. www.caabu.org/news/news/ov...

The UK Government's actions on Palestine are still at odds with public opinion and international law. When will it impose a total arms embargo on Israel, economic sanctions and a complete ban on trade with settlements? See our latest @yougov.co.uk poll here: www.caabu.org/news/news/ca...

16 NGOs including Caabu called on the UK government to end its complicity in violations of Palestinian rights and help bring the occupation to a rapid end, marking a year since the ICJ issued its Advisory Opinion that Israel’s entire presence in the OPT is unlawful. www.caabu.org/news/news/16...

Caabu's Malaka El-Gammal explains the background to the UK government's failure to publish its response to the ICJ opinion on Israel's occupation of Palestinian territory, and why 112 politicians have demanded in a Caabu letter why this must happen. www.caabu.org/news/video/m...
