Over the past eight months, Wollongong Friends of Palestine amongst other groups have been rallying and organising to end Israel's genocide and occupation in Palestine.
Meanwhile, a local steel manufacturer, Bisalloy Steel, has been busy supporting the Israeli Occupation Forces and profiting off the genocide.
This community picket will be our longest yet, aiming to bring operations at Bisalloy to a halt for a full twelve hours. We'll be hosting a community breakfast, lunch, and dinner, as well as as musical performances, speeches, circus games, and lots of arts and crafts to pass the time!
Bisalloy Steel armours IOF tanks, as well as Plasan Re'em armoured cars, the vehicle of choice for Zionist militias terrorising Palestinians in illegal settlements across the West Bank and Palestine. Bisalloy's share price has increased by over 123% since October 8th, 2023.
Bisalloy has a long history of working with Elbit Systems, Rheinmetal, and Rafael Defence Systems--all companies notorious for their support of genocide and occupation.
This picket will be the latest of a number of actions that have halted production and disrupted business as usual at Bisalloy.
No Illawarra steel for genocide and occupation! No warmongering! Free Palestine!
