Statement: International community must help make ceasefire work, says UNISON. Commenting on the Gaza ceasefire and hostage deal announced today (Wednesday), UNISON general secretary Christina McAnea said:
βThis is a moment we all have long hoped for. An end to the 15-month conflict that has killed so many Palestinians, caused unimaginable suffering, devastated large swathes of Gaza, and meant such trauma for the Israeli hostages and their families.
βToo many lives have been lost, too much pain endured, but the international community must make every effort to provide urgent aid to Gaza so it can rebuild and ensure this ceasefire holds.
βThis must be a lasting peace. A two-state solution must be everyoneβs ultimate goal and UNISON reiterates its call to the UK government to recognise the state of Palestine.β
