“We came together on Sunday to honour all those who have died in the genocide in Gaza, which is now coming into its second year. It was a very moving experience for everyone who attended,” said spokesperson Miriam Killiney.

“We hope that the current peace talks are successful. However, we know that our humanitarian aims will not be achieved until Palestine gains self-determination and apartheid is dismantled,” she said.
