Palestinian trade unions issue an urgent global call to action, calling on workers everywhere to halt the sale and funding of arms to Israel — and related military research.
"We make this call as we see attempts to ban and silence all forms of solidarity with the Palestinian people. We ask you to speak out and take action in the face of injustice as trade unions have done historically. We make this call in the belief that the struggle for Palestinian justice and liberation is not only a regionally and globally determined struggle. It is a lever for the liberation of all dispossessed and exploited people of the world." Palestinian General Federation of Trade Unions, Gaza
The urgent call from workers in Palestine just before the Worker's May Day – 1st of May – is already adopted by various Initiatives and Organizations around the world to be materialize in all May Day mobilizations and actions.
