War on Gaza, Researchers Find

almost no food left in Gaza." - The Sameer Project (July 21)

"The Sameer Project has been forced to stop food distributions that feed
entire encampments and community kitchens that feed thousands, because we
cannot find food or ingredients. We usually feed tens of thousands of
people per week, now we can only find limited amounts of nutritional
packets and some vegetables in the markets. When we do, this supply goes to
the sickest patients in hospitals to keep them alive, and we will continue
to do this.
We are still able to supply water and we are still able to buy tents and
provide medication. But soon this will not matter when people are dropping
in the streets."

Open Letter to Prime Minister Carney to take decisive action to end
genocide in Gaza

Join us at the Human Rights Monument at 6PM on Tuesday, July 22, to take to
the streets as part of an international day of action for Gaza. Famine and
mass starvation have reached unprecedented levels across the Strip, with a
surge of preventable deaths from exhaustion, malnutrition and starvation
being reported each day. Palestinians in Gaza are starving for one reason
and one reason alone: Israel's siege, backed fully by the US, Canada, and
imperialist allies. We must multiply our efforts to bring the blockade to
an end. We must stop the world for Gaza.

Bring your pots and pans and be loud for Gaza!

DATE: Tuesday, July 22
TIME: 6PM
Place: Human Rights Monument
