Public Meeting: Report Back from Gaza with Musheir El-Farra

Musheir El-Farra (Chair of Sheffield PSC) has just returned from the Gaza Strip.  He will  give an illustrated talk about his visit focusing on the ways in which popular resistance to Israeli’s siege is developing  despite the severe hardship people are experiencing.

Since the peaceful protests began along the Israeli-Gaza border on March 30, 2018, Israeli forces have killed over 200 Palestinians and wounded more than 7,000 people with live ammunition.

He will talk about  the children projects that Sheffield PSC supports in partnership with local Palestinian grass root organisation in Gaza, which includes  the Healing Centre in Khuza’a that provides much needed support for the many children traumatised by Israeli attacks and siege
