In Brussels, Belgium, a show of solidarity for Palestine unfolded during the European Union (EU) Leaders’ Summit, as Israel’s 118-day assault on the Gaza Strip continued. In Schumann Square, hundreds gathered, brandishing Palestinian flags and advocating for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
Protesters accused Israel of genocide in Gaza, urging the EU to step in and end the ongoing attacks. Criticizing the EU’s silence, demonstrators chanted slogans like “Let the genocide stop,” “Terrorist Israel,” “Murderer Israel,” and “Shame on Europe.” They called for Israel to face war crime charges in international courts and appealed for unwavering support for the Palestinian people from Europe.
