Caritas Australia Urges Supporters to Sign Gaza Petition

Caritas Australia is urging supporters to sign a petition to amplify the call for increased aid access and a ceasefire.

“The people of Gaza cannot eat less than they already are,” said Caritas Australia’s chief executive, Kirsten Sayers. 

“Every signature helps protect innocent lives and ensure vital aid reaches those who need it most.”

The petition, which can also be printed with signatory sheets, will be delivered to the Australian Foreign Minister’s office on September 1. It calls for:

• Safe, unhindered, and large-scale humanitarian operations;
• An immediate and unconditional permanent ceasefire;
• Protection of civilians and aid workers; and
• The release of all Israeli hostages and Palestinians arbitrarily detained by Israel.
