Listen to their stories. Hear the first-hand heart-breaking experiences of Oct7.
Liran, Yonatan, Ido and Yamit’s family members were taken and are still held captive by Hamas.

& I invited them to the European Parliament to share their story. Watch:

I call for a firm stand against China in
🇪🇺🇨🇳 debate:
❗️ No to overdependence on China!
❗️ Yes to tougher trade enforcement!
❗️ Yes to more sanctions on human rights abusers!
❗️ Free Ilham Tohti! Free Gui Minhai! Free Jimmy Lai!
❗️ Free all those wrongfully imprisoned!

ADOPTED ✅ The Parliament adopted a new report on the situation for
https://nitter.cz/search?q=%23children
deprived of liberty. As the
https://nitter.cz/EPPGroup
rapporteur, I am very pleased to have included the children who are deprived of their liberty due to "honour"-based abuse. Honour is never an excuse for abuse!

From the river to the sea, ALL hostages must be free!
- Israeli as well as Palestinian.
First: Hostages freed.
Second: Hamas crushed.
The hope of two states living in peace next to each other is impossible as long as
https://nitter.cz/search?q=%23Hamas
prevails.

RT by @davidlega: Jina #MahsaAmini and the Iranian women's protest movement were awarded this year's #SakharovPrize.

“Jina #MahsaAmini was killed by the Iranian regime because she dared to show her hair. But she has not disappeared. Her courage lit a spark of hope in Iran,” says @davidlega.

ÖPPET BREV: Låt Jina Mahsa Aminis familj resa till Strasbourg för att ta emot Sakharovpriset!
Jag blev förbannad - om än inte förvånad - när jag i lördags fick vetskap om att Aminis familj stoppats från att resa från Iran. De har sina visum och de har följt alla regler, men regimen stoppar dem ändå.
Därför har jag samlat stöd från mina kollegor i Europaparlamentet och nu är vi 117 europaparlamentariker som idag protesterar mot Irans beslut med detta öppna brev ⬇️

The ceremony is tomorrow. Together with @davidlega and @rglucks1 and many more colleagues we request the regime to let them travel!

Förra veckan blev statsministern avbruten av demonstranter förra veckan när han talade i Göteborg - bu-rop(!) när han fördömde terrororganisationen Hamas.
Idag avbröts ett samtal om mänskliga rättigheter i Europaparlamentet när demonstranter skrek och avbröt talmannen.
Det är okej att tycka olika om konflikten i Mellanöstern. Det är på intet vis okej att störa demokratiska samtal, att skrika och bua när andra pratar.
Jag håller med Stefan Löfven: Håll klaffen när andra talar!
