Eyewitness Report — Gaza under Siege a public meeting with Dr Mona El Farra
 |
Tuesday June 4
6.30pm
Alexander Library Theatre Cultural Centre Northbridge
Israel’s Operation Cast Lead was described by a UN fact-finding
mission as “a deliberately disproportionate
attack designed to punish, humiliate and terrorise a
civilian population.” The 2008–09 assault claimed the
lives of 1400 Palestinians and thrust the crisis in Gaza
into the centre of the debate about the Israel/Palestine
conflict.
The crippling siege continues to block access to much
needed construction materials and denies people access
to vital healthcare. Life for the people of Gaza is
punctuated by regular military incursions. Gaza has
come to be known as the world’s largest open-air prison.
Come and hear Dr Mona El Farra, a physician by training who has dedicated
herself to developing community based programs that aim to improve health
quality and link health services with cultural and recreation services across
Gaza. Dr El Farra is Vice President & Health Chair of the Red Crescent Society
for Gaza and Gaza Director of the Middle East Children’s Alliance.
Entry by donation: $10 / $5 conc.
Organised by Friends of Palestine WA and supported by
Students for Palestine (UWA) & the Palestinian Community of
Western Australia.
