We are grateful to BADIL Resource Center for Palestinian Residency and Refugee Rights and the Global Palestinian Refugee and IDP Network (GPRN) for their work and are honoured to endorse and share their statement this Nakba Day: “Accountability through Sanctions to End the Ongoing Nakba”
“May 2026 marks 78 years of ongoing Nakba and 31 months of genocide in the Gaza Strip: ongoing Israeli crimes that are enabled and bankrolled by Western, colonial states, exposing the extent and depth of their complicity. The Israeli regime relentlessly advances its Decisive Plan characterized by: ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip; escalation of colonial expansion in the West Bank; and enforcement of the campaign aiming to eliminate the presence and protection of international agencies and organizations, including UNRWA. As the Israeli crimes of forced displacement and transfer, colonization, apartheid and even genocide are normalized, the protection gap facing Palestinian refugees widens further. The ongoing inaction and complicity of states are also responsible for the replication of the Israeli regime’s genocide model in Lebanon. While the global solidarity movzement pushes for military, economic and political sanctions, the Palestinian people continue their struggle for liberation.”

Urgent Action is Needed
Yesterday, May 14, Ezer Mizion hosted an event (reportedly at the Meridian Arts Centre) with Idan Amedi — an Israeli soldier who participated in the genocide in Gaza.
Idan Amedi was a reservist who volunteered to participate in Israel’s genocidal assault on Gaza. He posted photos of himself in his miliatary uniform and expressed his outright support for Israel, along with vile anti-Palestinian racism.
Further, this event was hosted by a “charity”, Ezer Mizion. In 2025, we submitted a complaint to the CRA regarding Ezer Mizion hosting three current or former Israeli armed forces members who participated in the genocide in Gaza.
