Massive demos took place around the world in rejection of Israeli aggression on Gaza

Popular movements continue in many capitals and cities around the world to denounce the Israeli aggression against Gaza, which has entered its seventeenth day, as the occupation forces continue their raids on the besieged Palestinian Strip since October 7.


As the pace of Israeli crimes against defenseless Palestinians increases, the scope of protests expands, with participants calling for an immediate cessation of the aggression.


Hundreds of demonstrators came out in Boston, United States, in a massive march in Copley Square in the city center.


The demonstrators raised Palestinian flags and chanted for the freedom of the Palestinian people. They also called on the American administration to play a more effective role in stopping the Israeli massacres.


In Denmark, thousands roamed the largest streets of the capital, Copenhagen, in a huge march that ended at Christiansborg Palace, where the Parliament building is.


The protesters called on their country's government to pressure the occupation government to stop the massacres targeting children and women.


“Srebrenica yesterday, Gaza today”

In a related context, the scale of Israeli crimes in the Gaza Strip prompted thousands to take to the streets in Sarajevo.


The demonstrators chanted, "Srebrenica yesterday is Gaza today," in reference to the Srebrenica massacre, in which Serb forces exterminated hundreds of Muslims in the region.


The same popular anger was witnessed in Pakistan, as hundreds marched towards the US Consulate in Karachi, where they gathered in a protest demanding an end to the Israeli aggression on Gaza.
