TUNISIANS CONTINUE STANDING UP FOR PALESTINE

Hundreds gathered outside the French embassy in Tunisia on 16 July to protest Israel’s continued massacre of Palestinians in Gaza, aided by European and US arms, diplomatic cover and funding.

Demonstrators waved Palestinian flags and placards that read ‘stop the genocide.’

The protest came in the wake of an Israeli airstrike that killed at least 90 people and wounded 300 others in Gaza’s Al-Mawasi camp, designated by Israel as a humanitarian zone.

Since 7 October, Israel’s military onslaught has k*lled more than 38,000 Palestinians. However, British medical journal Lancet reports the casualty figure could be as high as 186,000 people. Further, most k*lled in Israeli airstrikes have been women and children, despite Israel’s claim that its military operation targets H*mas members.
