Pro-Palestine demonstrations expand across America
A survey by a non-governmental organization that specializes in collecting, analyzing and mapping data on conflicts and crises shows that protests on the streets of American cities in support of Palestine have increased since the Zionist regime's barbaric attacks on the Gaza Strip. The American website Axios, citing the organization Armed Conflict Location and Events Data Project (ACLED), wrote that at the latest demonstrations in support of Palestine last Saturday in the Manhattan area of New York in the United States, hundreds of people, holding Palestinian flags in their hands, chanted slogans against the Zionist regime and demanded an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and an end to US military support for the Zionist regime. The demonstrators also condemned the actions of the United States, which vetoed the Security Council resolution on an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip. America and its Western partners provoked the intensification of the Zionist regime's recent attacks on the Gaza Strip by supporting the Zionist regime with weapons. As a permanent member of the Security Council, this country vetoed a resolution proposed by the United Arab Emirates to establish a ceasefire in the Gaza Strip, despite receiving 13 votes in favor in the council. At a Friday evening meeting of the UN Security Council, a resolution on the United Arab Emirates proposal was put to a vote, with 13 of the 15 members of the Security Council voting in favor, the US and Britain voting against, and another member of that council abstaining. On October 7, 2023, Palestinian resistance forces launched a surprise operation called Al-Aqsa Storm from the Gaza Strip (southern Palestine) against the positions of the occupying Quds Force regime and this regime, in order to take revenge and compensate for its defeat and stop resistance operations, closed all checkpoints points in the Gaza Strip, constantly bombing residential and medical areas of this enclave region. The number of Palestinian martyrs has exceeded 18,000 and a further 49,229 have been injured since the Zionist regime began its attacks on the Gaza Strip, 70% of whom are women and children.
