Gaza is being massacred
We held a die-in demonstration today together with activists and civil society outside the European Parliament.
A 'review' of trade relations is too little too late.
Arms Embargo now. Suspend the EU-Israel Association Agreement now!

Militant action by MEPs and activists outside the European Parliament today to demand EU action to stop the genocide in Gaza.
MEP Rima Hassan makes it clear: the EU's vague pledge to review the EU-Israel Association Agreement isn’t enough.

🚨Urgent Press Conference 🚨
Trump has declared Trade War on us all. And while American oligarchs get tax cuts, it's tariffs for everyone else.
The Left will host a press conference today to present a more ambitious EU response targeting billionaires, not working people.

🚨Different legislature, same habits. A new corruption case is shaking the EU Parliament —again.
Huawei lobbyists reportedly bribed at least 15 lawmakers.
This directly results from Parliament's failure to act against corruption despite the Left's repeated warnings.

Today, Left MEPs stood in front of the room where the far right was holding a xenophobic event. They are discussing "remigration"—a euphemism for forced deportation.
Racism has no place in the European Parliament and in the EU. They found us in their way. ✊🏽

In December, Israel raided the last functioning hospital in northern Gaza and detained the hospital’s director, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya.
He hasn’t been seen since.
