The New Dark Age

Saturuday, 13 September 2025 — Al Mayadeen English

The “We Are All Gaza, We Are All Palestine” network in al-Bireh in the occupied West Bank has called for the first-ever global hunger strike in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza, set to begin on September 16 under the slogan “Your hunger is our hunger.”

Activists said trade unions and civil society groups across the occupied West Bank, including in al-Khalil, Beit Lahm, Ramallah, Nablus, Qalqilya, Jenin, and Tulkarm, are preparing to join, regardless of the tightened security measures.

They said the initiative is meant to pressure world leaders to end the Israeli war and lift the siege on Gaza, describing it as a collective response to the widespread suffering caused by deliberate food blockade and destroyed infrastructure that have left hundreds of thousands facing severe hunger.

Meanwhile, supporters worldwide are urged to fast and use social media to amplify the call for an immediate ceasefire and humanitarian aid delivery to Gaza.
