PALESTINE campaigners in Wales today called for a mass boycott, divestment & sanctions (BDS) campaign to support the calls for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

Palestine Solidarity Campaign Cymru asked people across Wales to join a day of action on Saturday March 9 and take part by organising or supporting a BDS action nearby.

The campaign is asking individuals to write to their local supermarket and ask them to stop stocking Israeli products until Israel complies with international law. 

PSC honorary president Betty Hunter said: “Israel’s impunity must end: if not the genocide will continue. We must stop arming Israel. 

“We must support boycott, divestment and sanctions. It is by this non-violent direct action that we can support the Palestinian people in their just cause.

“We of course continue to call for an immediate and permanent ceasefire in Gaza and an end to the genocide.”

The campaigners are urging people to boycott Israel, including goods, services, and academic, cultural and sporting links.

They are also calling for local authorities, universities and other investors to end investments in, and purchases from, any company or body complicit in the oppression of Palestinians.
