Moroccan Masses Unite to Amplify Support for Palestinian Cause


(MENAFN) Thousands of Moroccans flooded the streets of downtown Rabat on Sunday, demonstrating their steadfast backing for Palestine as tensions across the region intensify.

Clad in Palestinian keffiyehs and brandishing both Moroccan and Palestinian flags, the crowd gathered close to the parliament building. They voiced strong anti-Israel chants and urged Moroccan officials to completely end political relations with Israel.

This large-scale protest was spearheaded by the Moroccan National Action Group for Palestine, working alongside several local human rights groups.

Abdelhafidh Sraiti, who coordinates the Moroccan National Action Group for Palestine, emphasized, "This march reaffirms the Moroccan people's unwavering support for Palestine."

Additionally, some participants criticized Israel and the United States over recent military strikes targeting Iran, condemning the U.S. role as an act of "imperialism."

Morocco officially established diplomatic ties with Israel after signing a normalization deal on December 22, 2020.
