As UCL staff, students, and alumni united in solidarity with Palestine, we welcome the news of a ceasefire and celebrate Palestinian steadfastness in resisting a genocide and Israel’s attempts to divide and colonise. We hope this ceasefire endures, though Israel’s history of violating such agreements, evident in its ongoing breaches of the ceasefire agreement in Lebanon, demands much caution.
Now, more than ever, Palestine needs our continuing solidarity to ensure a permanent ceasefire and justice in the face of the mass destruction and genocide that has unfolded in Gaza in the last 15 months. But a ceasefire is not enough! We must continue to apply pressure, organise and fight to guarantee Palestine’s liberation.
We are unwavering in our commitment to resist and dismantle Israel’s Western-backed apartheid and occupation, and renew our demand for UCL to end ALL complicity.
