Palestine supporters stage rally in Berlin under heavy rain
BERLIN (AA) – A group of Palestine supporters staged a rally Thursday in Berlin to protest Israel’s ongoing attacks on Gaza, which have killed more than 22,400 people and left the coastal enclave in ruins.
Despite heavy rain, the protesters gathered outside German Chancellor Olaf Scholz’s office to express solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Carrying Palestinian flags, the crowd chanted slogans such as “Free Palestine” and “Stop the genocide.”
Speeches at the demonstration demanded an end to the Israeli attacks and called on the international community to make an effort in this regard.
Israel has launched relentless air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since an attack by the Palestinian resistance group Hamas on Oct. 7.
At least 22,438 Palestinians have since been killed and 57,614 others injured, according to Gaza’s health authorities, while nearly 1,140 Israelis are believed to have died in the Hamas attack.
The onslaught has destroyed or damaged 60% of the enclave’s infrastructure and nearly 2 million residents have been displaced amid acute shortages of food, clean water and medicine.
