She spoke at a press briefing in Constitution Hill in Johannesburg during the launch of Week4Palestine, an initiative that brought activists, students and community leaders gathered to call for justice for Palestine.

Mokonyane also called for continued solidarity with the people from the Gaza Strip, as the Israeli–Palestinian conflict persists.

“We, proudly, as the ANC endorse Week4Palestine, joining over a hundred organisations in our country, SA and across the globe. To us, this is not a symbolic gesture, but again, another call to action. It can’t be a stop and start. It has to be a continuous action as we have also seen how many nations and peace loving people of the world continued to give us the necessary support,” says Mokonyane.
