Demo in solidarity with Gazans

On Saturday 20th December there will be a demonstration outside the Egyptian Embassy (Ballsbridge) from 2 to 4pm. We will be calling on the Egyptian government to end its complicity in the siege of Gaza and to use its influence to push for the permanent opening the Rafah Crossing between Gaza and Egypt. The crossing has been closed for over 40 days.

We urge you to come along and show your support for the besieged people of Gaza this Christmas, a couple of hours of your time is not much to ask. Please bring flags, placards etc.
