Xinhua reported citing police that more than 12,000 people from over 34 associations and organizations participated in the marching and rally, supporting innocent Palestinians who have suffered the conflicts between the Zionist regime and Hamas for two weeks.
With a heavy guard of local police along the route of the demonstration, many demonstrators stayed for over two hours at the Schuman roundabout in front of the European Commission headquarters. Some of them also accused the European Union of its acquiescence to the Zionist regime’s bombardment of the Gaza Strip.
Many of them called for respect for the rights of all people in accordance with international humanitarian law and international human rights law.
“Free, Free Palestine!” “Stop the genocide!” “Freedom and justice for Palestine now!” These slogans were chanted by demonstrators, and written on banners and cardboards.
The associations and organizations also demand that the Israeli regime should lift the siege on Gaza.
On October 7, Hamas launched a surprise operation, dubbed Al-Aqsa Storm, outside Gaza after Israeli settlers stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound in recent days and a record number of Palestinians were killed by the Zionist regime in recent months.
The Zionist regime responded by pounding the besieged Gaza Strip after formally declaring war against the Palestinian Hamas group.
