The international community cannot stand by while Palestinians in Gaza are killed in their hundreds. The bombing must stop, permanently, and aid must be allowed to flow into Gaza unhindered before any more lives are needlessly lost.

The horrifying decision by the Israeli authorities to block humanitarian supplies into #Gaza will cost lives. In the last few weeks alone, seven babies have died of hypothermia. Many more people will die if urgently needed supplies are cut off.

President Trump's suggestion to forcibly displace Palestinians from #Gaza is damaging, and a threat to human rights. UN Secretary-General, Antonio Guterres, has warned against ethnic cleansing. We call on Prime Minister Anthony Albanese to also step up and condemn Trump's proposal.
