April 24th marks 200 days since the ongoing bombardment of Gaza begun. The Israel Government announced plans for a ground invasion on Rafah. Our government must do more to demand a ceasefire at every opportunity.

The ongoing attacks disproportionately impact women and children. Women cannot access products for menstruation, give birth in a clean hospital, or access care for children.

The UN has declared that Gaza is moments away from a famine.

Stand with us as we join the Women In Black Canberra at their weekly vigil on the war memorial roundabout in Canberra.

Wear black. Many women also chose to hide their identities so feel free to do that if you like. It will be chilly so wrap up warm.
