Appeal for humanitarian aid to the civilian population of Gaza:
In order to prevent the humanitarian disaster in Gaza from increasing in scope, we ask our politicians to immediately influence to:
1. Stop the hostilities and protect civilians, and provide emergency aid to the children and their mothers.
2. Lift the blockade of Gaza and provide the necessary humanitarian aid, food, water, fuel, medicine and medical equipment
3. Contribute to a political solution to stop the occupation of Palestinian territories
