Syrians in Damascus took to the streets after Friday prayers, staging pro-Palestine protests against Israel’s latest measures targeting Palestinian held in Israeli jails and the continued closure of Al-Aqsa Mosque.
Demonstrators waved Palestinian flags and chanted slogans condemning Israel’s actions, calling for the liberation of Al-Aqsa and expressing solidarity with Palestinian detainees.
The rally formed part of a wider wave of protests across Syria, as anger grows over Israel’s policies towards Palestinians and its continued wars in the region.
Thousands have taken to the streets nationwide, condemning a new law under Israel’s apartheid legal system allowing the execution of Palestinian prisoners - a measure that does not apply to Jews - as well as the continued occupation of Syrian territory.
