Protesters Speak Out
The protesters in Istanbul want the world to take action. They believe it's important to end the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. People marched to show they stand with the Palestinian people. They want to offer hope to those who have been suffering for a long time.
The protesters used lights to symbolize hope.
They want Palestinians to have their basic needs met. This includes food and humanitarian aid. They believe that large protests will make the world pay attention to the suffering in Gaza.
One protester said that the world is watching the "atrocity" and "brutality" in Gaza but is not doing enough. They believe that if a few countries worked together to open the Rafa border crossing, aid could be delivered. They also suggested that a large march could make a difference.
What Gazans Need
People in Gaza lack basic necessities. They don't have enough food, water, electricity, or medicine. The protesters in Istanbul hope their actions will push the international community to take a stand against Israel's actions.
The Turkish government
has spoken out against what they see as harmful policies against Palestinians in Gaza. They believe that standing by Israel has become a moral problem for many countries. The Turkish foreign minister said that recognizing the state of Palestine is an important step toward a solution. Many countries are recognizing Palestine.
Recognizing Palestine could be a step toward a better future.
The protester highlighted what they felt was a double standard: that people worry about animals but not about the people suffering in Gaza.
Here are some of the things people in Gaza need:
- Food
- Water
- Electricity
- Medicine
