Dozens of Palestinians took part in a march in the occupied West Bank city of Ramallah on Saturday, denouncing the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip and demanding pressure to halt it and protect the Strip's residents.

The march was organized at the invitation of the city's national and Islamic forces. Participants raised the Palestinian flag and marched through the streets of Ramallah, chanting anti-Israel slogans and calling for Arab, Islamic, and international action to halt the war of extermination.

Mustafa Barghouti, Secretary-General of the Palestinian Initiative Movement, said during his participation in the march, "We will not abandon our people in Gaza, who are being slaughtered and subjected to a mass massacre. Our message is that all people everywhere must rise up in defense of Gaza."

Barghouti called on all Arab and Islamic peoples to exert pressure by all means to stop the genocide.

He added: "If 57 Arab countries meet and decide to break the siege on Gaza, they will break it. If they send a message to (US President Donald) Trump that what Israel is doing threatens American interests, he will be forced to rein in (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin) Netanyahu."

The Palestinian leader called on all countries to "sever relations with the Israeli government and close their embassies."

He considered it "shameful for countries to normalize relations with Israel while it commits three war crimes against the Palestinian people: genocide, ethnic cleansing, and collective punishment by depriving people of water, medicine, and food."

For his part, Sabri Saidam, Deputy Secretary of the Fatah Central Committee, considered what is happening in Gaza to be evidence of the international community's failure to protect human rights.

He said: "We will not remain silent, we will not be silent, we will not surrender, and we will move to stop the aggression. This ongoing bloodshed means that human values have died and exposes the world's complicity with the occupation."

Sa'edam stressed the existence of "constant communication with all Palestinian factions to work towards achieving national unity."

On March 18, Israel reneged on the ceasefire and prisoner exchange agreement in effect since January 19, and resumed its genocidal war on the Gaza Strip.
