Of the Palestinians whom the Israeli military has killed, 4,324 have been children. An estimated 26,475 people in Gaza have been wounded, and access to medical care has been severely compromised. Israeli airstrikes have struck multiple hospitals and the Israeli siege of Gaza has deprived medical personnel of fuel, water, food and medication, including anesthesia. At least 2,550 people are missing in Gaza, including 1,350 children.
Community groups who helped organize the shutdown, under the leadership of USPCN, included the Chicago Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression, Black Lives Matter-Chicago and a worker-led mental health collective called Rayo Counseling and Community Co-op. In a statement, the coalition demanded that Schakowsky call for an end to all U.S. aid to Israel, and that Schakowsky drop all charges against the seven protesters who shut down her office two weeks ago.
