Run The Wall: Press release
Press release date
For immediate release
[Name of participant] from [Name of town] is [Running] [Walking] [Riding] the Israeli Separation Wall, with thousands of participants worldwide, in solidarity with Palestine.
Local resident [Name] is taking part in Run The Wall on the 25th, 26th and 27th of April 2025 as an act of solidarity with Palestine, to demand freedom of movement for Palestinians, and to demand their government implement international law and stop arming Israel.
Participants will run, walk, ride, or even swim 5-55 km, wherever they are in the world over the same weekend.
Human rights organisation Amos Trust started Run The Wall in 2021 with their Palestinian friends at Right To Movement when Covid-19 caused the Palestine Marathon in Bethlehem to be cancelled. Run The Wall has now become an annual event worldwide.
Each Spring, Amos Trust invites people worldwide to run for Palestine on the same weekend as 10,000 people participate in the Palestine Marathon. Furthermore, many of the thousands participating in over 30 countries will help raise funds for Amos Trust’s emergency appeal for Gaza and the West Bank.
[Optional participant quote]
“I am taking part in Run The Wall because...” [Background reasons for participating or involvement with Israel/Palestine over the years].

Palestine Justice resources
Take a look through our range of resources, blog posts, downloads and products to find out more about our Palestine Justice work.

Gaza City We Are Not Numbers
Stories, not numbers. When the world talks about Palestinians living under occupation and in refugee camps, it is usually in terms of politics and numbers. But numbers are impersonal, and often numbing. We Are Not Numbers are a Palestinian youth advocacy organisation who tell the human stories behind the numbers in the news from Gaza.

Gaza City Al Ahli Arab Hospital
Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza City was bombed on 17th October 2023 — up to 500 people were killed. Despite the extreme adversity, the Al Ahli Hospital staff and volunteers are committed to serving the community through out-patient and in-patient care.

Boycott Puma Sanctions, not Settlements
The Boycott Puma Campaign seeks to put pressure on the sportswear company Puma to end their sponsorship of the Israel Football Association, who as documented by Human Rights Watch, includes 6 Israeli football clubs based in illegal Israeli settlements on occupied Palestinian land. Puma’s current and past exclusive licensees in Israel also have operations in illegal Israeli settlements.

Investing For Peace Taking Action for Palestine
In 2009, all the main Palestinian churches came together to form Kairos Palestine. Their campaign has enjoyed recent success with the Quakers, URC and Methodists. Now see how you can become involved with Sabeel-Kairos in pressing denominations to change and with the wider work undertaken.
Palestine Justice
Cultural Boycott Support the movement
Israel overtly uses culture as a form of propaganda to justify its apartheid policies and occupation of the Palestinian territories. Palestinian anti-apartheid activists have called on international artists, writers, cultural institutions and those who work for them to join the cultural boycott of Israel.
Palestine Justice
Stop Arming Israel Join the campaign
Amos Trust believes that it is vital that we listen to, and act upon the Palestinian civil society call for a military embargo on Israel because of its violations of international law during its frequent attacks on Palestinians. In the UK, this campaign has been led by Campaign Against the Arms Trade, the Palestine Solidarity Campaign and War on Want.
Palestine Justice
Boycott, Divestment & Sanctions Join the campaign
In 2005, Palestinian civil society issued a call for a campaign of boycotts, divestment and sanctions (BDS) against Israel until it complies with international law and Palestinian rights. A truly global movement against Israeli Apartheid is rapidly emerging in response to this call.
