AMSTERDAM/BERLIN/PARIS, Nov 19 — People across Europe continued to take to the streets on Saturday to express solidarity with Palestine and condemn the ongoing Israeli attacks on Gaza, Anadolu Agency reported.
Braving rainy weather, some 2,000 people gathered in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, carrying Palestinian flags and chanting slogans including "from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free," "ceasefire now," and "stop genocide in Palestine."
In Poland, hundreds rallied in the capital city of Warsaw in solidarity with Palestinians in Gaza with slogans emphasising on the killing of children and civilians by Israel.
Meanwhile, a large-participation march was organised in the Austrian capital Vienna demanding an end to the Israeli occupation of the Gaza Strip.
In Germany, hundreds of people held a pro-Palestine protest in Berlin.
A group of doctors marched with their mouths covered to draw attention to the bombing of hospitals in Gaza and the killing of civilians.
Thousands also gathered at Parc Des Cropettes Square in Geneva, Switzerland, to protest Israeli attacks on Gaza.
Despite the cold, protesters marched to the United Nations (UN) Office in the city.
Meanwhile in France, thousands of demonstrators also endured cold weather and rain at a protest for Gaza.
Throughout the country, separate demonstrations were organised in various cities, including Rennes, Clermont-Ferrand, and Toulouse.
Israel has killed more than 12,300 Palestinians in its air and ground attacks on the Gaza Strip since Oct 7.
Thousands of buildings, including hospitals, mosques, and churches, have either been damaged or destroyed in Israel’s relentless strikes on the besieged enclave.
An Israeli blockade has also cut Gaza off from fuel, electricity, and water supplies, and reduced aid deliveries to a trickle.
