Dear Subscribers - First, for anyone with the time and the means, today is the last day to sign up for the Global March to Gaza. Updated information is here: Instagram / @marchtogazaerie and you can sign up here March to Gaza | Global March To Gaza. btw, a British media personality will be livestreaming the March on June 15 and I plan to find and share the link on the calendar.
Also, last Sunday the Freedom Flotilla organized an online panel that was not listed on the NENJP Calendar. Given that the Flotilla is currently just hours away from Gaza, I thought I would share the recording. (The YouTube link to the recording is below the description.)
What are the legal & political stakes of the Gaza Freedom Flotilla?
As the Madleen sails to break Israel’s illegal blockade, join legal & political experts for a critical live panel on what’s at risk—& what’s protected—under international law.
From attacks in international waters to state accountability—this is more than a panel. It’s a call to witness.
Panelists:
• Francesca Albanese – UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories
• Luigi Daniele – Associate Professor of International Law, University of Molise
• Thiago Ávila – Human rights defender and one of twelve participants currently aboard the Freedom Flotilla
• Huwaida Arraf (moderator) - International human rights attorney and Freedom Flotilla organizer
