Aberystwyth Wednesday Vigil

Individuals and members of different activist groups standing together in solidarity with Palestine.

For over three years, we have gathered every Weds to stand against the ongoing genocide, raise awareness, share information and encourage boycotts.

Meanwhile, Gaza’s humanitarian crisis continues to worsen. Food shortages are pushing prices beyond many families’ reach, leaving people struggling to access basic necessities.

On 5 Nov, reports revealed that Israel had ordered the complete closure of the Rafah crossing with Egypt, further restricting humanitarian aid, food, fuel and essential supplies. Around 50–60 trucks reportedly entered daily, despite the ceasefire agreement stipulating 600 aid trucks per day. Israel is internationally starving Gaza.

Please donate to families in Gaza and humanitarian organisations on the ground. Boycott complicit companies, raise your voice and keep standing against genocide.

Gwylnos Aberystwyth ar ddydd Mercher

Unigolion ac aelodau o wahanol grwpiau gweithredu yn dod at ei gilydd mewn undod â Phalesteina.

Am dros dair blynedd, rydym wedi ymgynnull bob dydd Mercher i sefyll yn erbyn yr hil-laddiad parhaus, codi ymwybyddiaeth, rhannu gwybodaeth ac annog boicotio.

Yn y cyfamser, mae’r argyfwng dyngarol yn Gaza yn gwaethygu. Mae prinder bwyd yn gwthio prisiau y tu hwnt i gyrraedd llawer o deuluoedd, gan ei gwneud hi’n anodd cael hyd yn oed yr angenrheidiau mwyaf sylfaenol.

Ar 5 Tachwedd, datgelodd adroddiadau fod Israel wedi gorchymyn cau croesfan Rafah â’r Aifft yn llwyr, gan gyfyngu ymhellach ar gymorth dyngarol, bwyd, tanwydd a chyflenwadau hanfodol. Yn ôl yr adroddiadau, roedd tua 50–60 o lorïau’n mynd i mewn bob dydd, er bod y cytundeb cadoediad yn nodi y dylai 600 o lorïau cymorth fynd i mewn i Gaza bob dydd. Mae Israel yn achosi newyn i bobl Gaza ar raddfa ryngwladol.

Rhowch roddion i deuluoedd yn Gaza ac i sefydliadau dyngarol ar lawr gwlad. Boicotio cwmnïau sy’n rhan o’r sefyllfa, codwch eich llais a daliwch ati i sefy

The first of two vigils during these 'Remembrance' days. We also had white poppies available for those who wanted them. Our leaflet reminded us of the hundreds of thousands killed in wars of these times... the tragic waste of life, creativity... and of the huge annual investment in war while so little invested in peace.
