“A ceasefire was agreed yesterday evening, under which Israel was forced to accept terms including freedom of movement for Palestinians in Gaza.

We will be marching to demand that Israel implements the ceasefire terms and ends its siege, and to demand justice for those who have been killed and injured by Israel’s attack.

As PSC patron Ahdaf Soueif said ‘Gaza is no longer alone’ The appalling green light given to Israel’s attack by Britain’s Foreign Office Minister stands in sharp contradiction from the solidarity and support from Egypt, Turkey and other countries.
