Open letter from UK university staff: Request for biometric deferral and safe evacuation of incoming Palestinian students and scholars from Gaza to UK Universities

More than 40 students currently trapped in Gaza with full scholarships to UK Universities are asking for a safe route to come and study.We, the academic community hoping to welcome these scholars, call on the UK government, Home Office and Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office to facilitate a biometric visa deferral and open a route of safe passage for our incoming students so they can take up their places of study in September. 

OUR GENOCIDE

Since October 2023, Israel has shifted its policy toward the Palestinians. Its military onslaught on Gaza, underway for more than 21 months, has included mass killing, both directly and through creating unlivable conditions, serious bodily or mental harm to an entire population, decimation of basic infrastructure throughout the Strip, and forcible displacement on a huge scale, with ethnic cleansing added to the list of official war objectives.

Structural Violence and Humanitarian Facades: A Critical Analysis of Israel’s Gaza Aid Mechanisms

In a July 2025 exposé by Double Down News, former UNRWA official Chris Gunness revealed Israel’s systematic weaponization of humanitarian aid in Gaza, detailing how the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF) – staffed by ex-military personnel – has replaced UNRWA while enabling attacks on civilians seeking food (over 875 people killed). The testimony exposes Israel’s use of biblical genocidal narratives (Amalek doctrine), deliberate obstruction of aid under humanitarian pretexts, and Western complicity through defunding of UNRWA while sanctioning International Criminal Court investigators – constituting what legal experts identify as violations of the Genocide Convention’s prohibition on starvation tactics. This institutionalized violence represents an alarming case of humanitarian systems being repurposed for population control.

The Israeli occupation continues to enforce a systematic starvation policy, implemented through a suffocating blockade and severe restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid.
