The streets of Washington DC were flooded with Palestinian flags and calls for an end to the bloodshed in the Gaza Strip on Saturday as thousands rallied against Israel’s ongoing military campaign.
Demonstrators centred their efforts on Freedom Plaza and began their march late into the afternoon following addresses by a number of speakers. Estimates of the crowd were difficult due to the sheer size but easily numbered in the tens of thousands, if not higher. Activists, pro-Palestinian signs, and flags could be spotted far across the city as the march was unfolding.
