About This Event

The West Bank Today: Facing the Abyss takes place at the Aberdeen Mosque and Islamic Centre. Members of the Hebron International Resources Network (HIRN) will speak about the realities facing communities in occupied Palestine. Tickets are free.

Hear directly from members of Hebron International Resources Network (HIRN) about the realities facing communities in occupied Palestine.

Join us for a powerful evening of witness, compassion, and action.

2025/2026 has seen unprecedented settler violence and land confiscation across the West Bank. Nowhere is this more acute than in Masafer Yatta, where 19 communities in the South Hebron Hills face imminent forced displacement.

The Hebron International Resources Network (HIRN) was founded to provide these communities — and others across the Hebron region — with hope and the support they need to remain on their land.

HIRN is a small, community-led organisation that can respond quickly and personally to those in need. Known for its agility and compassion, HIRN provides practical help to individuals and families while building grassroots resilience rooted in dignity, sumud (steadfastness), and courage.

We welcome to Aberdeen two members of HIRN for folks to hear first-hand accounts from those on the ground in Palestine and gain a deeper understanding of the realities facing communities every day. Learn more about their incredible work, the impact it is making, and how your support can help bring hope and lasting change.

Doors open at 5:30pm with hot drinks and snacks provided complimentary or for a small donation which will go towards HIRN.

We will begin at 6:00pm so please give enough time to arrive prior to the start of the talk.

Join us. Listen. Stand with us. Donate. Make a difference.
