Protests Held Globally for Gaza Ceasefire

News summary

Thousands of protesters across the UK and other countries gathered on Saturday to call for a ceasefire in Gaza and Lebanon, coinciding with the nearing one-year mark of the ongoing conflict that has resulted in nearly 42,000 deaths in Gaza. The 'National March for Palestine' in London featured chants such as 'ceasefire now' and 'stop bombing hospitals', while protests also took place in cities including Paris, Cape Town, and Dublin. In South Africa, demonstrators marched to parliament, expressing solidarity with Palestinians and accusing Israel of genocide, with some advocating for legal actions against Israel at the International Court of Justice. The protests highlight growing international concern over the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, intensified by Israel's military actions following Hamas's attack on October 7, 2023. Activists emphasized that the situation continues to deteriorate, calling for urgent change. Organizers in South Africa delivered a memorandum urging the implementation of the 1973 Apartheid Convention against states practicing apartheid.
