Paris, MINA – Thousands of people marched through the streets of Paris on Saturday to mark the solidarity-with-the-palestinian-people/">International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People, MEMO reported.
Demonstrators called for an immediate ceasefire and urged a boycott of Israel as they moved through the French capital.
Protesters carried Palestinian flags and held banners with messages such as “Boycott Israel,” “Genocide, apartheid, occupation… Justice for Gaza,” “Stop the genocide in Gaza,” and “78 years of Nakba, 2 years of genocide.”
