Pro-Palestinian demonstration rally for Israel-Gaza cease-fire at Freedom Plaza. Washington DC. USA. November 4. 2023
As Israel continues its fourth week of intense bombardment of the besieged Gaza strip, huge crowds of protesters have gathered to call for a ceasefire in Washington, Saturday’s turnout is a continuation of protests that have emerged across the world in response to Israel’s intense retaliation for the October 7th Hamas terror attacks, which killed more than 1,400 people, including civilians and soldiers. The nonstop Israeli bombardment has killed almost 10,000 people in Gaza, many of them civilians and a large portion of them children. Israeli airstrikes have targeted hospitals, schools, refugee camps, and ambulances, sparking outrage from the international community and warnings from rights groups that the strikes may constitute war crimes. Protesters filled in and flowed beyond Freedom Plaza, a block from the White House, with the crowd streaming for at least a half-mile down the surrounding streets.
