Dear fellow Wikimedians,

On the 7th of April, a joint statement was published by Wikimedia groups, ally organization, and individual Wikimedians expressing concern over the humanitarian catastrophe in Palestine. The statement calls on "all Wikimedia groups, affiliates, allies, and volunteers to unite in solidarity with humanity and demand an immediate and lasting ceasefire to halt the tragic loss of life and destruction of Palestinian cultural heritage." 

Additionally, the signatories call upon the WMF to "prioritize the impartial dissemination of information and accurate, real-time documentation of the current human-caused humanitarian disaster and erasure of cultural heritage" and to "take proactive measures to ensure the safety of volunteers, communities, partners and knowledge and memory institutions from Palestine contributing to the dissemination of knowledge."

Since the initial release, several additional groups and individuals have signed on to the statement, and others are kindly urged to do the same.

Peace and justice for all,
