Urge Israeli Government to Release Activists

The Nobel Women’s Initiative is deeply concerned by the detention of Nobel Peace Laureate Mairead Maguire and other human rights activists on the Free Gaza Movement mission to deliver aid to the people of Gaza by boat.  Israeli naval forces forcibly boarded the Free Gaza boat and detained the human rights workers on June 30th, 23 miles off the coast of Gaza. The activists have been detained in Israeli prisons since.

Write the Israeli Government, or the Israeli Embassy near you, and urge them to immediately release the activists and ensure the delivery of the humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza.
