Two hundred parliamentarians from Israel’s top military allies, including Australia, France, the UK and the US, have signed a letter calling on their states to end their arms sales to Israel.
“We will not be complicit in Israel’s grave violation of international law,” the letter reads. “The ICJ ordered Israel not to kill, harm or ’deliberately [inflict] on the [Palestinians| conditions of life calculated to bring about... physical destruction’. They have refused.”
The signatories include US representatives Rashida Tlaib and Cori Bush, UK former Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, and leader of the Australian Green Party Adam Brandt, among others.
