  • I am writing to express my grave concerns about the ongoing genocide in Gaza being carried out by Israeli forces, and the ongoing failure of the New Zealand Government to impose meaningful sanctions on Israel. Last week, the United Nations Human Rights Office stated that “at least 410 Palestinians have been killed by the Israeli military while trying to fetch from controversial new aid hubs in Gaza”.
