Statement on Gaza and Israel

Friends of the Earth International (FoEI) issued a statement condemning violence in the conflict between Israel and Gaza, calling for an immediate end to the military attack on Gaza's civilian population and a permanent resolution to the occupation of Palestinian territories.

• Friends of the Earth International (FoEI) condemns the killing of innocent people and the taking of hostages, while opposing all acts of violence in the context of the conflict between Israel and Gaza.
• FoEI supports the self-determination of the Palestinian people and advocates for a two-state solution based on pre-1967 borders, as outlined in UN Resolution 67/19 (2012), which envisions an independent, sovereign, democratic, contiguous, and viable State of Palestine.
• The organization describes the sixteen-year blockade of the Gaza Strip by Israel as a form of collective punishment that has denied the free movement of people and goods and resulted in the destruction of civilian infrastructure.
• FoEI characterizes the current military response by Israel against Palestinians in Gaza as a war crime, noting that a population where nearly half are under 18 is being cut off from fuel, water, and electricity.
• FoEI calls for an end to the violence and demands that Israel withdraw from territories occupied in 1967, including East Jerusalem, and provide compensation and the right of return for Palestinian refugees.
