A 40-day fast for Gaza, organized by Veterans For Peace, begins today, May 22.
You’re invited to a 40-day fast for Gaza, organized by Veterans For Peace. (VFP May 21st Press Release)
https://www.fosna.org/2025gazafast
On May 22, we begin our fasting across the country while demanding:
1) a resumption of humanitarian aid, under UN authority, to Gaza
2) that the U.S. stop arming Israel NOW!
Join us in our work! We imagine two fasting options: a centralized fasting location in NYC where fasters will commit to 250 calories a day, in line with the general caloric intake of Gazans under the ongoing Israeli military blockade, and a dispersed fasting option for folks to join the work from their local context.
This action is open to all Gaza allies and people of good conscience who want an end to the genocide in Gaza, veteran or not. Our fast launches as the UN warns the death of 15000 infants is imminent. Join us as we resist this genocide!
Note: We have now reached capacity for our community-housed centralized fasters in NY. All new registrants will be counted as dispersed fasters.
