 Over 116,000 people around this country, including health and medical workers, some of whom are in the gallery right now, have signed petitions calling on the government to support an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. There are over 2 million people in Gaza living in an area half the size of Canberra. 40% of them are children. And because of the blockade, they are walled in. They have nowhere to go. And so when there were plans to launch an invasion of Gaza, in the most densely populated place on the planet, it was obvious that it would lead to a humanitarian catastrophe. Yet as bombs began to rain down on Gaza, Labor and the Liberals backed the invasion. On top of the 1,200 Israelis dead, over 11,000 dead now in Gaza. Over 4,000 children dead. And they're just the ones we know of because they have lost the ability to count how many people are now dying. No food, no water, no electricity. Doctors performing caesareans by torchlight to mothers without pain relief. Premature babies unable to be incubated. And yet, even as these horrors unfold, even as entire families lie beneath the rubble, a Labor government still will not call for a ceasefire. We need to join the majority of countries around the world who are calling for a ceasefire. I seek leave to table the petitions relating to ceasefire in Gaza. Ceasefire now. Release the hostages in the occupation.
