Hundreds in the besieged enclave rally against so-called ‘March of the Flags’ taking place in occupied East Jerusalem.
Hundreds of Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip have protested against a “provocative” march by Israeli far-right nationalists through occupied East Jerusalem. Tuesday’s so-called “March of the Flags”, which marked the anniversary of Israel’s 1967 occupation of the city’s eastern part, came as tensions remain high over Israel’s planned forced displacement of Palestinian families from the neighbourhood of Sheikh Jarrah. The march posed a test for Israel’s fragile new government as well as the tenuous truce that ended last month’s 11-day Israeli assault on Gaza, while killed 256 Palestinians, including 66 children. At least 13 people in Israel, including two children, were killed by rockets fired by Palestinian armed groups in Gaza.More Related News
