Stand with Palestinian political prisoners

Sign up to get your free Stop Arming Israel badge in solidarity with Palestinians.

Right now Israel is holding 6,500 Palestinians as political prisoners. 700 of them are being held in administrative detention, without being charged or standing trial, held on secret evidence not even available to their lawyers. 300 of the political prisoners are children under the age of 18.

These arrests and detentions are part of the systematic oppression of Palestinians living under Israeli military occupation. Israel's detention policies and practices violate international law, even amounting to war crimes. Despite the UK Foreign Office expressing concern over Israel's excessive use of administrative detention and imprisonment of children, these numbers have continued to increase.

The UK government must act to uphold human rights and international law and hold Israel to account for its policies towards Palestinian political prisoners. War on Want is campaigning for an arms embargo on Israel to hold it account for its war crimes and other violations of international law.

Please add your name to show your solidarity with the Palestinian people, and we'll send you a Stop Arming Israel badge for free.
