The broad student participation came in response to the call of the Revolutionary Youth Union, the youth organization of the Arab Socialist Ba'ath Party in Syria, which organized solidarity rallies throughout the cities of Damascus, Aleppo, Latakia, Tartous, Deir Ezzor, al-Hasakah, Hama, and Khan Sheikhun in Idlib, as well as in Homs and Daraa, with the participation of thousands of Syrian students.

The participants saluted the heroism of the Resistance fighters who contributed to Operation Al-Aqsa Flood, stressing the unity of the cause and path.

Moreover, the demonstrators also called on Arab countries to support the right of the Palestinian people to resist and end the Israeli occupation.

In turn, the Moroccan capital, Rabat, also witnessed significant demonstrations in support of Gaza and its people against the oppression of the Israeli occupation.

The coordinator of the Moroccan Front for Supporting Palestine and Against Normalization, Tayeb Madad, said in an interview with Al Mayadeen, “The Western regimes have completely exposed themselves in the face of what the Zionist entity is committing.”

Additionally, Madad stressed that the Morrocan government's normalization agreement does not represent the people's will, highlighting that “We are ready to provide all support to the Palestinian people, including armed Resistance.”

Cemeteries overflow in Gaza, Israeli genocide continues

During the ongoing aggression on Gaza, a distressing situation is unfolding as the bodies are currently administered en masse into hospitals, which are already at full capacity. Meanwhile, traditional burial rituals are nearly impossible as heavy Israeli bombardments continue to hit the Strip, razing houses to the ground and committing massacres against the Palestinian people.

In more detail, the number of martyrs, primarily civilians, notably women and children, is rapidly increasing due to the intense bombardment of residential buildings and the targeting of those who have fled their homes in search of safety.

According to the Palestinian Ministry of Health, as of the latest report, the death toll has reached 2,390 martyrs. This translates to an average of 300 lives lost every 24 hours, as per the ministry's data.

Consequently, graveyards are overflowing, and the journey to reach cemeteries is fraught with the constant threat of airstrikes.
