The effort, announced Thursday, comes in response to tensions in the U.S. surrounding the war in the Middle East
A group of attorneys in San Diego will offer free legal services to defend the civil rights of local Jewish and Muslim community members who may be victimized because of tensions surrounding the deadly Israeli-Palestinian conflict in the Middle East. The effort was announced Thursday outside of the downtown San Diego federal courthouse by Shane Harris, president of People's Association of Justice Advocates, and several of the attorneys.
Those wishing for a free legal consultation with a participating attorney about potential civil rights violations can contact pajmovement.org/legal-aid-taskforce or 354-8051. The long-standing Israeli-Palestinian conflict escalated Oct. 7 when Hamas, which is designated as a terrorist group by the U.S., Canada and the European Union, launched a surprise attack on southern Israel. In retaliation, Israeli military forces launched strikes against Gaza.
