The Algerian People’s Committee for the Support of Palestine and Jerusalem has organised a fundraising campaign to support Jerusalemite families and enhance their ability to be steadfast in the face of Israel’s ongoing Judaisation programme in the Holy City. Coordinator Ahmad Zaqout said in a statement on Monday that such support underlines the Algerian people’s role in backing just causes, with the Palestine cause at their core.

“The Algerian people want to have a role in the Jerusalem uprising by donating to the city’s needy families,” he explained. “This project comes within the framework of supporting and strengthening the Palestinians in Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa Mosque facing the Israeli occupation.”

Zaqout stressed that the committee will continue to support Jerusalem, and called for intensive efforts to remove the social injustice imposed on the Palestinians in the city by providing regular financial support. He thanked all of the Algerians who have donated to the campaign.
