Over 100 Calabrian municipalities have exposed the flag of Palestine today. The action follows a proposal launched via social by Pina Condò, known in the world of political and institutional communication of the region, and has met for massive adhesion within a few hours.
“The apparently simple action – says Condò – is transformed into a powerful message precisely because they are carried out in unison, on the same day, from institutional representatives of the first line, in everyday contact with the populations. Mayors, but also mothers, fathers, children, brothers or sisters, have decided to give voice to feeling widespread, to the sense of anguish and the indignation that pervades the Calabrian communities in front of the massacre in progress in Gaza”.
“This collective initiative – he continues – is a cry of pain and a strong call to the international community, Europe and individual governments.
The goal is Triple: immediately stop the massacre in Gaza, carried out by the Government of Netanyahu not on behalf of the Israeli people who, on a par with Palestinian people, asks peace, allow the entry of food and humanitarian aid to the civilian population, and to affirm and guarantee lasting peace. The mobilization of the Calabrian municipalities therefore stands as a symbol of solidarity and a warning to the urgent action in the face of the humanitarian tragedy “.
“It is not an act against anyone – reports the Municipality of Vibo Valentia in a note – but a signal of closeness to civil victims, with a particular eye to the little ones. The administration also expresses respect for all the Israeli people, while condemning the action of its government”.
