1/2: The people of Manchester successfully resist a police attack on the occupation of Walid Daqqa Hall (formerly Whitworth Hall) at the University of Manchester! After thousands marched in outrage against the Zionist atrocities in Rafah
The closure of the Manchester Camp of Resistance is by no means the end. This is only the beginning. We will continue to build this movement and target every complicit company until this genocide is over and until Palestine is free!
YFFP extends our congratulations to
@pal_action

For 40 weeks straight Manchester have been committed to standing with the struggle for Palestine and Gaza. For the children of Gaza, for their parents, their siblings, their aunts and uncles, for all the people of Palestine - ever forward to victory and liberation.
Join us for today's commemoration of one month of the Camp of Resistance for Palestine, and to honour our martyrs. From 12:00 at Piccadilly Gardens through to the evening vigil at Dr Adnan Al Bursh Park, all are welcome to attend our various events.
Let us move forward from this victory onto the next target, until UAV Engines is shut down and every Elbit factory across the country has closed its doors. Let us make Elbit untouchable.

This victory once again proves the validity of targeted direct action as tactic and strategy. It also demonstrates the role that can and must be played by the broader mass movement in supporting and supplementing direct action, with regular mass protests and office crashes.

Sunday 15th at 12pm, Piccadilly Gardens!
We demand the return of stolen Palestinian bodies! The Israeli occupation not only murderers, imprisons, and tears Palestinian families apart - they strip away their ability to bid farewell to their loved ones.
We are proud of the small role YFFP and the Manchester movement played in contributing to this success. Now, as the Gaza genocide worsens and as Jenin is under the most brutal attack in 20 years, it is more important than ever that we fight for Palestine - and we fight to win.
In only two weeks of going public, we have pushed Solutions Not Sides out! SNS is an Israeli-State linked group that aims to spread the false narrative of a “two-sided conflict”.
#NoToNormalisation
Manchester: In spite of the daily Zionist murders, arrests and attacks, Palestinian freedom fighters have reiterated their commitment to continue the confrontation and fight the occupation, and we will continue supporting the resistance until Palestine is free!

Bank Hapoalim, has been blacklisted by the UN for financing israel’s illegal settlements. AXA’s investments directly link to the land being stolen from Palestinians whether in Gaza or the West Bank.
This comes after a coordinated campaign led by Youth Front for Palestine, together with Loreto High School students and community, and the wider Manchester Palestine solidarity movement. The campaign came as a response to the school hosting SNS in February and in previous years.
