The Global Campaign to Stop the Genocide in Gaza called for participation in the global general strike on Monday, April 7, to demand an end to the ongoing genocidal war in the Gaza Strip. Local calls were made in Jordan, Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Algeria, Morocco, Libya, the UAE, Syria, occupied Jerusalem, and all Arab countries. The Palestinian Forces in other countries called upon the people to respond and mobilize. Among others Hamas and the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) joined the call and issued statements.
