Protests in support of the Palestinian people are continuing across the globe, spanning from the US all the way to Europe and Asia. 

In Ghent, Belgium, a pro-Palestine demonstration was held on Saturday. Demonstrators held flags and maps of Palestine.

Social media footage shows demonstrators waving Palestinian flags and maps and carrying posters that read "Student Intifada" and "End bloodshed and dehumanization now."

Some civil society organizations in Belgium have joined the demand to boycott "Israel", including significant groups such as 11.11.11, Vrede vzw, and the Ghent Coalition for Palestine, as well as Belgium's Deputy Prime Minister Petra De Sutter.

In Italy, Rome, Milan, and Messina held solidarity protests in support of Palestine over the weekend. 

Protesters expressed being upset at how several Arab nations remain silent, or even complicit.

Pro-Palestine protest disrupts progressives in New York rally

In the United States, demonstrators for Palestine disrupted a joint rally that included Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), and Sen. Bernie Sanders (D-Vermont).

Protesters brought together by Within Our Lives, a New York-based pro-Palestine organization, disrupted the joint demonstration led by the three US politicians on Saturday in support of US President Joe Biden in the forthcoming US presidential election in November.

Within Our Lifetime wrote in a thread on X that "endorsing Biden is endorsing the ongoing genocide in Gaza."

Pakistanis denounce Israeli war crimes in Gaza

Pakistan saw mass protests condemning Israeli war crimes in Gaza and the flagrant violations of human rights.

The marchers shouted anti-US and anti-"Israel" chants, urging the government to terminate diplomatic ties with Washington and any other country that supports "Israel". 

The boycott of pro-Israeli firms in Pakistan gained traction when protesters, largely students from educational institutions and religious seminaries, were arrested last week while attempting to conduct a demonstration in front of an international restaurant chain in Islamabad.

Police detained demonstrators calling for a boycott of pro-Israeli enterprises in the nation.

One protester told PressTV that the government of Pakistan is "afraid of the US," citing that demonstrations will end if the government of Pakistan fulfills one demand, that is, calling "Ismail Haniyeh, to offer condolences to him, and, to offer more support from the nation of Pakistan."

"They are afraid they held the aid package and they want the spare parts from the Jordan. So they're afraid and they do not represent the sentiments of the people of Pakistan."

The number of Palestinians killed since the start of the Israeli aggression on Gaza on October 7 has risen to 37,598 and those injured to 86,032, the Ministry of Health in the Gaza Strip confirmed on Sunday.

In its daily report, the Health Ministry stated that the Israeli occupation forces committed three massacres in 24 hours, killing a total of 47 people and injuring 121 others.
