Take Action: Israel still holding passport of British Journalist from Gaza Flotilla

Al Jazeera journalist Jamal Elshayyal was on board the MV Marmara on the Gaza Flotilla which was stormed by Israeli soldiers on 31 May. As with others on board, Jamal’s possessions were all confiscated by the soldiers, and not returned to him. As a journalist, his rights were not respected. As a citizen of Britain, worse still, his passport was not returned to him, and 23 days later, is still missing.

Just a few months ago Israeli secret services used stolen British passports to carry out an assassination in the sovereign country of the UAE. At the time, William Hague announced in parliament that he would never allow such a thing to happen if he was foreign secretary. Today, he holds that very position, yet has refused to publicly demand for the return of Jamal Elshayyal’s passports.

It is up to you to hold our Foreign Secretary to account. Email, call and write to him today, and ensure that he publicly pressures Israel for the return of the passport.
