GENEVA
Thousands of people have taken to the streets of the Spanish city of Zaragoza in support of “Free Palestine” as Israel prepares to attack Rafah – the last remaining shelter for hundreds of thousands of civilians and the backbone of international aid deliveries.
The Sunday demonstration was part of a nationwide protest organized by non-governmental organizations.
Protesters gathered in Plaza del Pilar and created a mosaic of the Palestinian flag with banners in their hands.
They also chanted slogans such as "Boycott Israel," and "Free Palestine" and demanded an end to the "genocide."
Israel stands accused of genocide at the International Court of Justice over its deadly onslaught on the Gaza Strip, which has left more than 29,780 people dead.
In an interim ruling in January, the Hague-based court ordered Tel Aviv to stop genocidal acts and take measures to guarantee that humanitarian assistance is provided to civilians in Gaza.
