Top US environmental advocacy group voices support for Palestinians

The Sunrise Movement, a major climate advocacy group that pushes to combat global warming, has voiced support for Palestinians, saying in a series of tweets that "climate justice cannot exist without collective liberation."

"The struggles Palestinians face are deeply tied to racial and housing justice, and movements for Indigenous sovereignty," the organisation said on Tuesday.

"Fighting against settler-colonial violence and ethnic cleansing shouldn’t be controversial. The only option is doing what’s right."
