END THE NIGHTMARE
FOR CHILDREN IN
GAZA AND LEBANON

Children need a ceasefire now.
Keir Starmer has called for a ceasefire, but bombs are still falling on children in Gaza.
He must demand vital aid be let into Gaza and prioritise saving innocent children’s lives.
Join us and 50,000 others in calling on Keir Starmer to do everything he can to end the nightmare for Gaza's children now.
