RISE Mzansi stands in solidarity with the people of Palestine during the global #Week4Palestine, observed from 1 – 7 May 2024. We vehemently condemn the ongoing atrocities and call for an immediate halt to the mass killings and human rights violations in Gaza. Upholding international human rights law and the Geneva Conventions is crucial in this conflict, as affirmed by the International Court of Justice's findings.
Our commitment to justice extends beyond borders; we advocate for a fully independent Palestinian state where human rights are protected. This is essential for the security and well-being of Israelis and Palestinians alike. RISE Mzansi urges for a permanent ceasefire, humanitarian aid access, and independent investigations into all violations. Join us in supporting human rights and peace.
