Morocco: Protest
Rally in Solidarity with Palestine and Condemning the Zionist Occupation’s
Siege of Gaza
Dozens of Moroccans took part in
a protest rally on Friday evening in the capital, Rabat, in solidarity with
Palestine and in condemnation of the genocide and siege imposed by the Zionist
occupation on the Gaza Strip.
The rally was called by the
Action Group for Palestine, a non-governmental organization, and held in front
of the Parliament building. Participants denounced the continued targeting of
Palestinian civilians and the prevention of humanitarian aid from entering the
besieged enclave.
Protesters pointed out that the
limited humanitarian aid that has reached Gaza under the ceasefire agreement
between Hamas and the Zionist occupation since October 10 has failed to end the
famine or address its consequences, amid severe economic deterioration that
hampers Palestinians’ ability to secure their basic needs.
Organizers said the rally came
in response to a call by Hamas to organize weekly “angry” marches around the
world in rejection of the ongoing genocide carried out by the Zionist
occupation against civilians in Gaza.
Participants chanted slogans
calling for continued support for the Palestinian cause and condemning the
ongoing targeting of civilians, including: “O resistance, march with the flood
until liberation,” “We are all Palestine,” and “We are all Gaza.” They also
raised Palestinian flags and banners reading: “Against Zionist crimes… a year
of solidarity and struggle,” “The Moroccan people stand with the unity of the
nation against aggression… with the resistance until liberation and the
overthrow of normalization,” and “Stop the genocide and starvation in Gaza.”
It is worth noting that the
Zionist occupation, with U.S. support, launched a genocidal war against the
Gaza Strip on October 8, 2023, resulting in the killing of around 72,000
Palestinians and the wounding of more than 171,000 others, most of them women
and children. Approximately 90 percent of civilian infrastructure has also been
destroyed.
