In the commentary we seek to uplift the research and documentation proving the ongoing violations of sexual and reproductive health and rights in Gaza and call on the SRHR community to recognise the destruction of reproductive justice in Palestine.

A picture of a hand holding an abortion pills box while another hand pulls out a card from the box saying: ACCESS DENIED, you do not have permission to view this information.

Above, there's a text that reads:
Help EFF and Repro Uncensored End Digital Suppression
As reproductive rights come under attack in the United States and other countries around the world, it is vital that people have access to accurate abortion information - especially online.
