Women in Black vigils for Gaza

Despite the so-called ceasefire, which Isreal has repeatedly broken, vigils and demonstrations are still ongoing in Manchester, including these:

WOMEN IN BLACK
Women in Black is an international peace network. Women in Black vigils were started in Israel in 1988 by women protesting against Israel's Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. The Women in Black stand in silent vigil to protest war, rape as a tool of war, ethnic cleansing and human rights abuses. We wear black because it is the colour of resistance. We are silent because so many words have already been said.

LET GAZA LIVE:
END THE SIEGE,
END THE OCCUPATION
In order for Gaza to rebuild and for the security of Southern Israel to improve the Israeli Forces must leave Gaza and the borders must be opened to allow goods in and out. The tunnels were previously being used for everything including food and medicines not just rockets. The British Government have supported the Israeli government unilateral ceasefire. Pressure them to support steps towards a just peace and security for all.
