Dear friends,

For months, Europe has buried its head in the sand as Netanyahu’s violence unleashed in Palestine.
Now, with Israel’s latest invasion and bombardment of Lebanon, that position is becoming impossible to sustain.
EU leaders will finally meet today to decide whether to impose economic sanctions. Spain is leading the way -- but even Israel’s closest allies such as France, Italy and Germany are under growing pressure to act.
This is a turning point.
More than a million of us have already spoken out -- now let's focus the pressure on the key blockers. Send your personal message on X or in email and share widely:

EU law requires trade partners to respect human rights – this is not optional. Enforcing these rules is not a matter of political preference, but a responsibility.
Right now in Gaza, over two million people are living through devastation, with over 70,000 people, mostly women and children killed. Israel is on course to seize the West Bank, while destroying thousands of villages, bridges and fields in Southern Lebanon.
And still, Europe continues trading with Israel as if nothing has happened.
But we have a real chance to change this now if we can be loud enough. Send your direct message to leaders, demanding they suspend the EU-Israel trade agreement. Now.

This is a moment of reckoning for Europe, and we can remind EU leaders what people-power is capable of. Let’s make it count.
For Gaza, the West Bank and Lebanon – for a future that’s rooted in dignity, human rights and accountability.
With hope and determination,
Nax, Marco, Gordon, Marie and the whole team at Avaaz
