Pro‑Palestinian demonstrations were staged around the world on the anniversary of the Gaza ceasefire, a year after the truce that halted fighting in the region.
Activists and supporters gathered in cities across Europe, the Americas and Asia to call attention to the ongoing humanitarian situation in Gaza and to demand a lasting end to the conflict.
The protests were part of a broader global movement that has seen regular rallies and vigils since the ceasefire was announced in August 2023, following a month of intense fighting between Israel and Hamas.
Participants in the demonstrations carried signs and chanted slogans in support of Palestinian rights, while organisers urged governments to increase diplomatic pressure for a comprehensive peace settlement.
Although the scale of the protests varied from city to city, the message was clear: the people of Gaza and their supporters are still demanding justice and a durable resolution to the conflict.
