A-Infos (en) Brazil, OSL: Full Support for the Global Sumud Flotilla! (ca, de, it, pt, tr)[machine translation]

All eyes are on the Global Sumud Flotilla! In the coming hours, the 
world will witness a decisive moment: the vessels carrying vital 
humanitarian aid for the people of Gaza are about to enter the "war 
zone" declared by Israel. Around 50 vessels are expected to cross into 
this extremely dangerous area in the early hours of October 1. ---- The 
mission has already faced huge obstacles, including technical problems 
that forced the relocation of the entire crew of the main ship, the 
"Family." Sailing in international waters under the constant threat of 
attack by Zionist forces, after strong popular pressure on governments - 
through strikes and intense mobilization - the final leg of the mission 
was strengthened by the support of Italian Navy ships and a Spanish 
escort vessel. Vessels from Turkey and the Red Cross are also expected 
to join in the coming hours.

The situation in Gaza is catastrophic. With the Israeli army fully 
occupying Gaza City, an estimated 700,000 people have been forced to 
flee under daily bombardments. The destruction is widespread, and in 
September alone four more hospitals were closed, leaving only 14 health 
facilities operating under severe restrictions.

Palestinian children are paying the highest price. According to Gaza's 
Ministry of Health, one in three children goes at least an entire day 
without food. About 70% of young people show signs of trauma, such as 
depression and anxiety, and 75% of families with children under five are 
struggling with malnutrition.

As the humanitarian crisis deepens, the Palestinian cause advances on 
the international stage. Eleven countries have recently recognized the 
Palestinian state, including the United Kingdom, Canada, France, and 
Portugal. While this recognition is symbolic and lacks concrete action, 
the gesture is a consequence of the pressure generated by people 
worldwide, whose solidarity continues to echo, with massive protests in 
cities such as Genoa and Berlin, where 100,000 people gathered last Sunday.

This moment demands immediate and decisive action. The approach of the 
Flotilla and the unimaginable suffering of the Palestinian people 
require all organizations to pressure President Lula's government to 
immediately sever all relations with Israel. Brazil must stop exporting 
oil and any other goods that sustain the genocidal war machine.

It is our duty to strengthen the ranks for the liberation of Palestine, 
from the river to the sea. We support the mobilizations planned in the 
coming days, the Palestine encampments at universities such as USP and 
UNB, and all initiatives that amplify this global cry for justice.

End the genocide!
For a Free Palestine!
Full support for the Global Sumud Flotilla!
