Mass Demonstrations in Morocco Condemn Israel's Genocidal War,
Siege, and Starvation Campaign in Gaza
Thousands
of Moroccans took to the streets on Sunday in several cities to protest against
the genocide being committed by the Israeli occupation in the Gaza Strip, and
to reject the systematic starvation policy claiming the lives of
civilians—especially children.
Citizens
responded to calls made by civil organizations, most notably the Moroccan Front
in Support of Palestine, organizing mass rallies and sit-ins in northern cities
such as Tangier, Tetouan, and Fez. Demonstrators voiced their outrage at the
international silence, chanting slogans demanding an end to the siege, the
prevention of famine, and the rescue of the besieged population.
Protesters
chanted against the forced displacement of Palestinians and condemned the
blockade and starvation, demanding the urgent entry of humanitarian aid and an
end to the catastrophe imposed on Gaza through a deliberate Israeli decision
backed by international powers.
The
demonstrations coincided with an announcement by the Gaza Ministry of Health
that the death toll from starvation had risen to 175, including 93 children.
The situation continues to deteriorate as Israel maintains the closure of all
crossings since March 2, barring the entry of food and medicine and pushing
famine indicators to “catastrophic” levels.
Since
the beginning of the assault on October 7, 2023, the Israeli occupation has
carried out mass atrocities, resulting in more than 210,000 dead and wounded,
in addition to 9,000 missing persons and hundreds of thousands displaced, all
amid a suffocating siege and escalating famine that continues to claim innocent
lives.
