Massive protests have erupted worldwide, condemning the recent massacre at Al-Tabeen School in Gaza. The brutal attack, carried out by the Israeli military, has sparked international outrage, with demonstrators across continents uniting in their condemnation of what many are calling a genocide against Palestinians.
On Sunday, images circulated widely on social media platforms, including Telegram and X (formerly Twitter), showing significant protests in various countries. In Canada, large crowds took to the streets to denounce the Israeli military’s actions at Al-Tabeen School, where scores of civilians, including children, government workers, and religious leaders, were killed. The protesters chanted slogans condemning the violence and expressed their solidarity with the people of Gaza.
Similar scenes unfolded in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, where supporters of Palestine rallied in the capital to demand an end to what they described as the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip. The demonstrators carried Palestinian flags and signs, calling for international intervention to halt the bloodshed.
In Europe, cities such as Gothenburg and Stockholm in Sweden, as well as several locations in the Netherlands and Manchester in the UK, saw thousands of people marching in solidarity with the Palestinian cause. The protests were marked by a strong condemnation of the Israeli military's actions and a call for justice for the victims of the Al-Tabeen School attack.
Amman, the capital of Jordan, witnessed a large gathering near the Israeli embassy, where protesters voiced their anger at the assault on Al-Tabeen School. Demonstrators in Jordan chanted, "Those who were praying have died as martyrs," and condemned any efforts to normalize relations with Israel.
In Morocco, citizens also held demonstrations, expressing their outrage over the killings in Gaza. Waving Palestinian flags, the protesters chanted slogans such as "Our souls and blood are sacrificed for Al-Aqsa Mosque" and "Long live Palestine," as they marched through the streets.
The attack on Al-Tabeen School occurred on Saturday during dawn prayers. The Israeli military launched missiles at the school located in the Al-Daraj neighborhood of Gaza City. The strike claimed the lives of at least 100 Palestinians, with many others injured. According to reports, the victims included a significant number of children, as well as government employees, university lecturers, and religious figures who were not involved in any political or military activities.
The massacre has drawn widespread condemnation from international human rights organizations and governments. Many have called for an immediate ceasefire and a thorough investigation into the incident, labeling it a gross violation of human rights.
As the global protests continue, the international community faces growing pressure to take decisive action to protect civilians in Gaza and to hold those responsible for the atrocities accountable. The ongoing violence in the region has further strained diplomatic relations and intensified calls for a resolution to the decades-long Israeli-Palestinian conflict
