Against a backdrop of growing apprehension among Israeli authorities over current events in Egypt, Tunisian and Algeria. Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, an Israeli group campaigning for health rights both in Israel and the Palestinian territories, has issued a ‘Message of solidarity with the struggle of the Egyptian people’.
The message of support, issued in Hebrew and Arabic, lauds the people of Egypt,Tunisia, and Algeria a for ‘struggling and shaking off the tyranny, corruption and suppression of liberties under which they have toiled for many years.’
It emphasises the right of the Egyptian, Tunisian and Algerian peoples ‘to define and create their own future and fate in their own way, and ‘to demonstrate and to protest until all their social, economic and political rights are fulfilled.’
Israeli officials have reportedly left the matter with the United States and other key states to ensure and preserve ‘stability’ in the region.
