Today, Saturday, Washington witnessed a demonstration in front of the Congress building in support of Palestine, denouncing the Israeli practices against the Palestinians in the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque and the occupied territories. 

The participants in the protests, which were organized by several American and Palestinian organizations, called on the Congress and the Biden administration to stop funding and supporting "Israel" and taking concrete steps to end its complicity with these actions. They also demanded the release of the prisoner Ahmed Manasra.

The protesters criticized US media for disregarding the reality of the arbitrary apartheid practice imposed by "Israel" on the Palestinians, raising slogans condemning the Israeli aggression, demanding an end to the siege on Gaza Strip, and calling for the liberation of Palestine and the freedom of Palestinians.
