Massive marches across Europe protest Israel’s military campaign in Gaza • FRANCE 24 English

Over 250,000 people, according to the authorities, 1 million according to organizers of the demonstration. A sea of people in Rome demand once again an end to the war in Gaza. This is the fourth day of protests in Italy following Israel’s interception of the international humanitarian flotilla. The protests have grown in size. I think many people were afraid at first, but now we know we are on the right side. We are here to say something important to shout together stop the genocide. The demonstration ended in the early evening with clashes between small groups of people and the police. More than 10 people were arrested. Rallies took place in many cities around the world on Saturday, but it was in Europe that they were largest. Here in Madrid, more than 90,000 people took to the streets of the Spanish capital to demand concrete action against Israel. We must end relations with Israel once and for all. Expel the Israeli ambassador from Spain. We don’t want these people here. We don’t want war. We want peace. In London, the demonstration was organized by Palestinian Action, which was classified as a terrorist organization by the British government in early July following acts of vandalism. As a result, nearly 450 people were arrested for supporting a banned organization. I’m disgusted by the police. Actually, they shouldn’t be arresting non-violent protesters here. We have a right to protest and Palestine Action is not a violent organization. Should never have been prescribed in the first place. The authorities had called for demonstrations in the country to be postponed after Thursday’s knife attack outside a synagogue in Manchester where two people were murdered. It.

Huge numbers turned out at pro-Palestinian rallies in Europe on Saturday (October 4), calling for an immediate end to the war in Gaza and the release of activists on board a flotilla carrying humanitarian aid to the territory.

  26. Good for them. Here in the US, people are too busy driving in their big cars to take the time to protest anything.

  29. Shame on this police.

    The police should join the rallies with the protesters.

    All politicians from all countries who are on Israeli payroll should be kicked out of the countries.
