Many members of the senate of Stellenbosch University have joined calls around the world for a ceasefire in Gaza.

The statement reads:"We, a collection of individual members of the Stellenbosch University Senate, note with deep concern the ongoing massacre and continued mass displacement of the population of Gaza by the Israeli military since 7 October 2023. "This level of destruction is brutal and barbaric. The extreme trauma of the surviving population continues to worsen as they bury their dead and fear for their lives. The universities in Gaza have been destroyed, some of which were destroyed after their capture by the Israeli military. They are being used as detention centres or military bases."There was a problem processing your submission. Please try again later.
