Protest against US support for Israel held in Istanbul

ISTANBUL

Following the International Free Palestine Congress organized by the Media Platform Association in collaboration with the Asim's Generation Social Media Platform, members of the platforms staged a protest outside the US Consulate in Istanbul against Washington’s support for Israel.

Making a statement on behalf of the group gathered in front of the consulate, Adem Palabiyik, the congress coordinator and faculty member at the Bitlis Eren University, said the struggle of the people of Gaza against Israel’s occupation is legitimate from religious, moral, and international law perspectives.

He said that Palestine, and especially Gaza, is the Ottoman legacy and the last fortress of resistance.

The group prayed for those who lost their lives in Gaza.
