Yael Kahn: 'Israel was always apartheid'

“When you find out that your life was built on the destruction of other people, you have a responsibility.” 

Yael Kahn, is a Jewish Israeli woman who has been campaigning for Palestine for 51 years. She has been advocating for a free Palestine since 1972 and believes it is her obligation to advocate for Palestinians everywhere, saying “I lived on the land stolen from them, so I have no excuse.’

Since 7 October, and Israel’s ongoing deadly assaults in Gaza, Yael has been regularly demonstrating in solidarity with Palestinians in London, UK, and asserts that global support for Palestine is only increasing.

“They underestimated the power of people and the people were not fooled.” 

This is Yael’s story.
