Gaza Aid Fleet: 600 Protesters in Frankfurt - Frankfurt Joins Global Protests Against Israel's Gaza Aid Fleet Interception
Hundreds of people have gathered in Frankfurt's city centre to protest against Israel's interception of a Gaza aid fleet. The demonstration, which started spontaneously at the Hauptwache, is one of many taking place across Europe and the Arab world.
Israel's navy detained over 400 crew members from various countries on a fleet of sailing and motor boats in the Mediterranean. The boats were just short of the Gaza Strip when they were intercepted. The action has sparked global outrage.
Protests have been organized by pro-Palestinian groups such as 'Defend Our Juries' in London, with widespread participation in countries like Ireland, Bulgaria, Turkey, Morocco, Tunisia, and Greece. The protesters accuse Israel of violating international law and committing war crimes in the Gaza Strip.
In Frankfurt, around 600 people took to the streets to express their anger at Israel's actions. The demonstrations reflect a growing international concern over Israeli policies in Gaza and the involvement of governments in these events.
