Turin. No Palestinian flags at the Giro d’Italia, an activist arrested

In Turin, during the protest to denounce the violation of international law (specifically the international convention against apartheid in sport) by the UCI, organizers of the Giro d’Italia, who invited the cycling sports team to participate Zionist Israel tech prime minister, an activist named Sara was arrested.

After a brief scuffle with the police who did not want to let those holding Palestinian flags pass, Sara was stopped and taken to the police station. The lawyer has now informed us that you are under arrest in the security cells of the San Paolo police station until Monday, where you will be tried directly for violence and resistance to a public official.

As you can clearly see in the video, Sara was doing nothing other than exercising her right to be there, at the edge of the route, with a Palestinian flag on her shoulders. What he wanted, together with all of us, was to express his dissent for the choice of the Italian UCI, which allowed the participation of the representative team of a gen0cid @ state in the race.

See you at 6.00 pm at the San Paolo police station

Clearly the situation is as surreal as it is disgusting.

We invite everyone to demonstrate at the subsequent stages of the Giro d’Italia so that international law is respected and that we talk about Sara’s senseless arrest.

She will be free. Free Palestine and may our right to speak be free too!

From May 4 to 26, from north to south, in cities and provinces, let us not let the team of the Israeli genocidal regime pass in silence.

From Palestine comes an appeal to mobilize along the entire route of the Giro d’Italia to contest the participation of the Israeli team. While Israel intensifies the genocide against the Palestinian population in Gaza, the Giro d’Italia welcomes its team with open arms.

International sporting bodies will fulfill their obligation to exclude Israel’s genocidal regime from sport only if we force them to do so.
