Hundreds of thousands march across Europe to call for cease-fire in Gaza

Hundreds of thousands marched across major European cities on Saturday, demanding an immediate cease-fire in Gaza as the death toll surpassed 30,000 due to ongoing Israeli attacks since October 7. Despite rainy weather, demonstrators gathered at Place de la Bastille in Paris, marching towards Place de la Nation in solidarity with Palestinians. Carrying Palestinian flags, they denounced Israel’s bombings and called for an end to the violence. Chanting pro-Palestine slogans, including “Gaza is not a prison, it is a concentration camp,” protesters called for a boycott targeting Israel. Terasia Bradford, a US citizen in Paris, attended to denounce governments complicit in what he called “genocide” in Gaza, urging an end to US financial support for Israel and sanctions from countries like France. Andrea Kallab, a Lebanese French citizen, condemned the situation in Gaza as a crime against humanity, drawing parallels to the Holocaust.
