Protests and expressions of solidarity persist across a multitude of Arab and international regions as the Israeli onslaught on Gaza enters its harrowing fourteenth day.

In Jordan, determined delegations were seen making their way toward the border areas adjoining occupied Palestine, uniting in resounding demonstrations of support for Palestine and unyielding solidarity with Gaza.

From Iraq, waves of supporters converge at the Jordanian border to stand with Palestine and bolster the Resistance.

In sync with the Friday call to prayer, impassioned marches resonated across the Iraqi provinces in fervent support of Palestine.

Concurrently, Lebanese people sailed in unity from the shores of Saida in the south, proclaiming their unwavering support for Palestine. Multiple protests also unfolded in the vibrant streets of Beirut.

In the Palestinian refugee camps in the southern regions of Lebanon, the situation didn't differ as fervent gatherings were held in solidarity with their own land, Palestine, and their Resistance.

Meanwhile, Algeria amplified the outpouring of support through massive demonstrations, passionately expressing solidarity with the Palestinian people.

In Yemen, a robust congregation converged on the iconic Jamal Abdel Nasser Street in Taiz, a profound symbol of solidarity with Gaza's enduring fight to protect its sacred land.

Iran resonated with a chorus of support for Gaza, where demonstrations were seen in Tehran and various cities across the nation. The fervor extends all the way to the Iranian-Iraqi border, in profound backing of Gaza's unwavering resolve.

Notably, the heart of Iran's capital, Tehran, bore witness to the powerful demonstration by Iranian mothers and their children at Mother's Square, in an emotional manifestation of solidarity with Gaza's massacred mothers and children.

In Egypt, numerous squares braced for the arrival of impassioned demonstrators, heeding the call of popular factions and political parties to stand in solidarity with Palestine and endorse President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi's unwavering stance against the forced displacement of Gaza's residents into Egypt.

Furthermore, acts of solidarity resonated from South Korea to Berlin, from Switzerland's Lausanne to numerous cities throughout France, defying constraints and law enforcement measures.

The French continue to rally in several French cities in support of the Palestinians, despite the constraints and police repression they faced days ago. This came after the French Minister of Interior, Gérald Darmanin, had issued an order earlier to ban any demonstrations supporting the Palestinians, on behalf of the French government.

Pressure from the French Council of State led to the nullification of the French government's decision last Wednesday. It is worth noting that the French Parliament did not approve the government's decision to ban demonstrations supporting the Palestinians in French cities, according to French media reports.

Argentina and Ecuador saw spirited protests, vehemently objecting to the ongoing Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip since October 7.

From Malaysia, a resilient rally embarked on a journey toward the US Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, denouncing the Israeli aggression on Gaza. Their impassioned chants resounded in unison, fervently endorsing al-Aqsa and Palestine.

Operation Al-Aqsa Flood ignited a wave of solidarity, uniting voices from the Arab world and beyond. Millions continue to gather across Arab, Islamic, and Western nations, fiercely condemning the relentless Israeli aggression.
