🔴 RED RIBBONS CAMPAIGN Details in alt text. #FreePalHostages #الحرية_للأسرى image: @psnaotearoa [IG]
🔴 RED RIBBONS CAMPAIGN The Red Ribbons Campaign is a digital civil initiative aimed at highlighting the plight of Palestinian prisoners held in Israeli prisons and keeping their situation visible in public and media discourse, amid ongoing policies of arbitrary detention, imprisonment without trial, and harsh detention conditions. 

The campaign emphasises the human dimension of the prisoners’ cause, reminding audiences that detainees are not numbers, but individuals with names, families, and lives interrupted by incarceration. 

Among them are doctors, academics, and civil figures, including Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya and others, whose detention reflects the targeting of Palestinian professional and community leadership. 

Using the red ribbon as a unifying visual symbol, the campaign calls for coordinated online action to broaden international solidarity and re-centre the issue of Palestinian prisoners as a core human rights concern.
6:47 AM

Join us this Thursday, 15 January, at 6:00 pm GMT / 8:00 pm Jerusalem time, in a global online action in solidarity with the Palestinian hostages held in Israeli prisons. 

They are detained under a system that has gone as far as passing laws that enable their execution. We have heard documented accounts of torture and abuse. 

Stand with them. 

Change your profile pictures in solidarity. 

Post your messages of support. 

Use the hashtags: #FreePalHostages and in Arabic: #الحرية_للأسرى 

Your voice matters. 

Your post can be their lifeline.

🇸🇩🧵We’re kicking off a detailed thread to help you catch up on the catastrophic violence and humanitarian crisis unfolding in Sudan. If you haven’t been following closely, this will give you the essential context.

➤ Up to 400,000 people have been killed since the civil war broke out in April 2023, including an estimated 60,000 in El Fasher in the Darfur region, in just three weeks after its fall in late October 2025. (Yale Humanitarian Research Lab)

➤ Right now, about 21 million people in Sudan face acute hunger, with roughly 375,000 at famine levels, with some 13 million people displaced. (IPC)

➤ The United States plays a key role. It has enormous leverage over the United Arab Emirates (UAE), which is the chief external backer of the Rapid Support Forces (RSF)—one of the two main warring parties in Sudan. 

➤ But experts and rights groups note the Trump administration is not using that leverage at all. In recent State Department briefings, Sec. Rubio and senior Africa officials have refused to even utter the name of the country. By not pressuring the UAE to halt its support, the U.S. is allowing the mass slaughter – “very likely genocide” according to HRW – to continue unabated.

Follow along as we break down the key aspects of the crisis and what’s driving the violence. 👇

More sociopathic behaviour. Israel has no respect for anyone so stop maling excuses for it, stop mollycoddling it, kick their collective arses hard, and pull them into line. If you don't they will never stop being the agressor. They will never be respectful of other countries or the united nations.

Letter to the Speaker of the House from Palestine Forum of New Zealand #NZPol
Rt Hon Gerry Brownlee
Speaker of the New Zealand House of Representatives

Dear Rt Hon Speaker,

It’s important to note that what happened today was not “poetry” or an “impromptu performance.” It was the voice of conscience from ordinary people who can no longer stay silent while a genocide unfolds.

Their message was clear, and it deserved more than a light remark. When institutions fail to act, citizens will speak — even from the gallery.

We may remove protesters in two minutes, but we cannot remove the truth they carried with them.

Thank you.

Palestine Forum of New Zealand

▪️Since the ceasefire on October 11, 2025:
- Total killed 376
- Total injured 981
- Total previously killed bodies recovered 626

This brings the recorded death toll from the Israeli genocide in Gaza to 70,365 and 171,058 injuries (likely 3-5x higher)
