to the streets on Saturday 9 August with a united demand for sanctions
on Israel
‘. As part of the call Palestinian trade unions are:

“calling on our brothers and sisters in the trade union movement
internationally to stop handling goods imported from or exported to

against Apartheid in South Africa, the Congress of South African Trade
Unions has joined us in the call for direct action to end Israel’s
impunity.”
