Chileans staged a demonstration yesterday to demand the government cut off diplomatic relations with Israel and take concrete measures that will “contribute to the ending of the genocide’ in the Gaza Strip and marked the 76th anniversary of the ‘Nakba’, the displacing of the Palestanians in 1948 while the Israeli state was being established. Hundreds of people of all ages who gathered in front of the Palacio de la Moneda in Santiago, shouted ‘For a free Palestine’, while holding up banners and Palestinian flags.
