Health Professionals: ‘Sanctions Kill More People Than War, Mostly Children’

On the eve of the International Day against Unilateral Coercive Measures, Americas Without Sanctions/SanctionsKill will host a webinar on BLOCKADES AND COERCIVE MEASURES: STOP THE WAR ON CHILDREN! Co-moderated by Dr. Margaret Flowers, pediatrician, director of Popular Resistance and co-founder of SanctionsKill; and Dr. Adlah Sukkar, a pulmonologist, lifelong human rights defender, and founding member of Doctors Against Genocide. The webinar is part of a new campaign launched this month in which health workers are invited to sign a letter to the US government demanding an end to its use of unilateral coercive measures (sanctions).

No War On Venezuela: Week Of Coordinated Protests – Nov. 15 To 23

The US military is hurrying its aircraft carrier battle group, with destroyers, jet warplanes and nuclear submarines to the shores of Venezuela, while threatening Colombia and massing U.S. troops in the Caribbean. Secretary of State Marco Rubio is calling for the military overthrow of President Maduro in Venezuela and the replacement of President Petro in Colombia.  This is a build-up to another endless U.S. war – a war to militarize the whole Western Hemisphere. Meanwhile the use of Federal troops and thousands of ICE agents in raids and mass arrests, along with massive increases in health costs and cuts to government services, are an attack on all working people in the U.S.

SanctionsKill Demands An End To US Aggression Against Venezuela

We condemn the escalating US attacks on Venezuela that have been ongoing since the Bolivarian Revolution began in 1998, including pressuring the country to bend to US interests through the imposition of unilateral coercive measures (“sanctions”) since 2015. These illegal measures are deliberately designed to cause inhumane suffering to destabilize the country and compel regime change. It has always been clear that the sanctions on Venezuela are a ploy to gain access to the country’s vast natural resources, including the world’s largest oil reserves. While the coercive measures imposed on Venezuela “succeeded” in causing over 100,000 excess deaths, the imperial objective of regime change was thwarted by President Nicolás Maduro in concert with the people of the country and in firm alliance with their military.

Palestinian And Global Civil Society Call For Global Actions September 18

On September 2, 2025, the Palestinian NGO Network (PNGO), which represents 150 Palestinian-led member organizations in Gaza and the West Bank, issued a Call for a Global Day of Action and Strike September 18th, 2025, endorsed by major grassroots organizations representing hundreds of millions of people around the globe (see PNGO’s Call for a full list of initial endorsers). This September 18 marks the deadline given by the UNGA in Resolution A/ES-10/L.31 for Israel to end its unlawful presence in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (OPT). The same resolution, which was issued September 18, 2024, also ordered Israel to immediately comply with the provisional measures in the genocide case at the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

FIFA And IOC Must Ban The US And Israel From International Sporting Events

The United States has become dangerous for members of the global community, and specifically for non-white/non-European people. The world is witnessing massive violations of human rights and the Constitution of the United States as masked agents using unmarked vehicles raid work places, homes, and places of public assembly to incarcerate and disappear Black, Brown, and Indigenous people and, in too many cases, denying them legal representation and basic information as to their whereabouts and wellbeing to their families and attorneys. Under the current U.S administration anyone suspected of residing in and/or visiting the United States with or without “proper” documentation, including U.S. citizens, are being harassed, questioned about their political beliefs and even detained without due process.

Adalah Demands Immediate Release Of 21 Activists Aboard The ‘Handala’

Israeli forces intercepted the Handala in international waters at around midnight (Israel time) on 27 July 2025 and contact with the activists was lost. This peaceful civilian mission was dedicated to the children of Gaza and named after the Palestinian national symbol Handala, created by political cartoonist Naji al-Ali, who represents a barefoot refugee child who turned his back on injustice and vowed not to face the world again until Palestinian refugees are allowed to return to their homeland. This ship, which sailed as part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FCC), is part of the coalition’s ongoing efforts to break Israel’s illegal and deadly blockade on the Palestinian people in Gaza, amid the ongoing genocide and deliberate starvation imposed on Gaza’s population.

Friends Of The Hague Group Launches To Support Anti-Imperialist Models Of Multilateralism

Bogota, Colombia - Representatives of major international organizations will convene to launch the Friends of The Hague Group (FOTHG) in Bogota as The Hague Group (THG) holds an emergency ministerial meeting on Palestine at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs on July 15 and 16. The Hague Group was established in January of this year in The Hague, Netherlands by the Plurinational State of Bolivia, the Republic of Colombia (current co-chair), the Republic of Cuba, the Republic of Honduras, Malaysia, the Republic of Namibia, the Republic of Senegal and the Republic of South Africa (current co-chair) so that states could work collaboratively using diplomatic and legal measures to enforce international law, specifically regarding Israel’s ongoing genocide of Palestinians and the failure of current international institutions to hold those countries and leaders who are committing war crimes accountable.

June 28 International Day Of Action: ‘No War With Iran’

We call on all peoples of conscience throughout the world to take to the streets on June 28, 2025 and march against the expansion of the Zionist-US aggression from Palestine through Lebanon, Syria and Yemen to Iran. For 20 months the people of Palestine have been steadfast against the collective west’s genocide of their people and theft of their land. In the face of a firm resistance, the US and the Zionists had no choice but to expand the war into Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and now Iran. Iran has supported the regional resistance in Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, Yemen and Syria for decades and is under attack because of its support for regional liberation from the clutches of US imperialist domination and Zionist colonialism.

Egypt Blocks And Deports Activists On The Global March To Gaza

The Global March to Gaza reports that hundreds of independent activists and organizations from around the world were violently deported by Egyptian authorities. Police and officials at Cairo Airport violated the activists; human rights. They not only deceived them by requesting their passports to enter, but also kept them waiting and detained in the security checkpoint for more than six hours. After several hours, they beat women and men forced them to leave the airport on buses and did not return the belongings of some of the deportees. The Egyptian government indiscriminately expelled the activists, returning them to Istanbul. The activists came from various backgrounds, including the coordinator of the International Platform for Solidarity with the Palestinian Cause, journalist and activist Hindu Anderi, and popular communicator Rome Arrieche.

Take Action: The Arrest Of Mahmoud Khalil Is A Warning

The arrest of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist and recent graduate of Columbia University, may seem like an isolated case—just another student detained under the increasingly draconian surveillance of the US security state. Some may wonder why anyone should care about the fate of a single foreign graduate student at an Ivy League university. But Khalil’s story is not an anomaly; rather, it is a warning. His detention by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), in what appears to be an attempt to silence pro-Palestinian activism, is part of a much broader global trend: the rise of authoritarianism in its neofascist form and the increasing weaponization of state power against dissenters.
