NUJ London Freelance Branch event: Honouring Gazan journalists. Wed 27 Aug at 5.30 pm opposite Downing St. Please join us when you can. Please share widely.

Hiya, hope you’re well.

I wanted to invite you along to this tonight – Honouring Gazan journalists – part of 48 hours of solidarity action by the NUJ and sister unions around the world in support of journalists in Gaza. ALL journos and media workers welcome.

We’ll read out the names of those killed and celebrate the bravery of colleagues who continue to report knowing they might be killed at any moment. Sunday’s double strike on Nasser Hospital, killing five journalists, brings our count of colleagues killed in Gaza to 222 – plus 2 in the West Bank, 4 in Israel, 9 in Lebanon, 1 in Syria and 3 in Iran.

We’ll also hear a recorded message from

Aljazeera English Online
Gazan reporter Wael Al Dahouh.
Ahmed Alnaouq
of the Gazan ‘We Are Not Numbers’ project, will speak, along with presenter
Sangita Myska
.

This coming together follows the handing in of a letter setting out demands and questions to 10 Downing St at 4 pm.

Please join us when you can. Please share widely. 🙏

If you can’t make it in person join us online. People will be filming it …
