Following the clashes that broke out after the death of leader of the Palestinian Jihad Movement Khader Adnan, who had been on a hunger strike for 86 days in Israeli prison, Israel and Palestinian groups agreed to a ceasefire. It was stated that Egypt, Qatar and United Nations (UN) officials mediated the agreement.
After Khader Adnan, 37 rockets were launched from the Gaza Strip to the south of Israel, injuring twelve people.
Hundreds of thousands of Iranians took to the streets after Friday prayers to protest Israel’s recent attacks on the country. The largest gatherings occurred in the capital, Tehran, where demonstrators marched following prayers at Tehran University.
High-ranking officials, including Iran’s Constitutional Court head Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejei and former IRGC commander Major General Mohammad Ali Jafari, joined the protest. Participants waved Iranian, Palestinian, and resistance group flags, and trampled on Israeli and US flags laid on the ground.
Protesters held banners reading “Down with Israel”, “Down with the US”, and “The Zionist regime will be destroyed”, while chanting slogans such as “We stand behind our leader”, “Everyone who clashed with Khamenei will eventually be destroyed”, and “Our right to nuclear weapons”.
