Israeli forces intentionally target Palestinian leaders, activists & human rights defenders to silence the movement & destroy anyone who speaks out against the occupation. #Nakba73 #GazaUnderAttack #SaveSheikhJarrah
Majd Barbar, former political prisoner from the ground in #Jerusalem, was recently released after spending 20 years in Israeli jail and immediately re-arrested by Israel. However, due to international pressure, they released him again. #Nakba73
Dalia Nassar is the project coordinator of @of_committees and will be representing Palestinian feminist leader, Khitam Saafin, as she talks about her case and Israel intentional targeting of activists and leaders who publicly speak against Israel’s crimes. #FreeKhitamSaafin
Israel continues its legacy of human rights violations with their recent arrest of #KhitamSaafin, Palestinian feminist and President of @of_committees, who was then sent to administrative detention. Join us in demanding Israel #FreeKhitamSaafin and #FreeAllPalestinianPrisoners! #Nakba73
#KhitamSaafin was arrested in mid-November of 2020 and placed under administrative detention, an order that detains Palestinians without charge or trial without proof of evidence #FreeKhitamSaafin #Nakba73
Leena Khattab, former political prisoner and student activist from Bir Zeit University, will speak on how student activists are targeted and arrested. She will speak on her brother Ata Khattab’s case who is a cultural worker with @FunounPdt who is currently detained in Al-Moscubiyeh #FreeAtaKhattab
Cultural performers like Ata Khattab play a huge role in Palestinian resistance, and that’s why Israel targets cultural workers. We demand an end to Israel’s crimes and we demand they #FreeAtaKhattab #Nakba73
