Amid the ongoing brutal zionist aggression on the Gaza Strip and the escalating horrific massacres against innocent civilians — with full American support and alarming international silence — we in the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) issue an urgent call to our Arab and Islamic nations and to all the free people of the world to actively participate in a global week under the slogan: “Gaza Cries Out to You.”
We call for the mobilization of all energies and means throughout the upcoming week in support of Gaza’s steadfastness, in condemnation of the aggression, and to demand an end to the genocide, through the escalation of all forms of solidarity action — including marches, sit-ins, and protests in capitals, cities, and public squares across the world.
We call for Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (April 18–19–20) to be designated as days of global rage against the occupation, in rejection of U.S. support and international complicity.
We in Hamas appreciate and support the global popular and union-led calls, and we encourage responding to them by designating Tuesday, April 22, as a Global Student and Labor Strike Day in universities, educational institutions, and labor unions worldwide — in solidarity with Gaza and in support of its besieged people’s resilience.
The cries of children, the moans of the wounded and sick, and the groans of the hungry and displaced call out to every living conscience and place upon all a humanitarian and historical responsibility to participate in this global week — to break the shameful silence until the aggression ends and the siege is lifted.
