In order to show their unshakable support for the Palestinian people, hundreds of Tunisians from diverse political and ideological perspectives gathered in Tunis.
The demonstration brought attention to the catastrophic circumstances in Gaza, where one million people have been forced to flee after a week of intense Israeli bombardment.
“There isn’t an event linked to Palestine that doesn’t bring Tunisians of all political and ideological persuasions together, and in my opinion, Palestine is the cause that unites Tunisians,” expressed Bahri Arbaoui, a demonstrator.
Ammar Jmaai, another demonstrator said:
“The Tunisian people, even if they have distanced themselves from politics in Tunisia and avoided political demonstrations, remain vigilant in the streets, especially when it comes to the issue of freedom.”
After a brutal and unprecedented onslaught by Hamas terrorists on Saturday, October 7, Israel launched a week of intense bombardment on the Gaza Strip, forcing about one million Palestinians to flee.
Tunisians have expressed their concern and empathy as a result of the severe humanitarian catastrophe that has come from the intensification of the violence in the area.
