STORYLINE:
Dozens of Palestinians demonstrated in the West Bank city of Ramallah following Friday prayers in support of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip, as Israel presses ahead with its military offensive in the coastal enclave
The protesters marched in the city center, carrying Palestinian and Hamas flags.
Ramzi Rabah, a senior member of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, said the rally and similar ones in Jerusalem “are all aimed at reaffirming solidarity with our people in Gaza.“
“This battle and struggle is dedicated to thwarting the goals of the aggression and ensuring the resilience and resistance of our people,“ he added.
During the march, protesters chanted against Egyptian President Abdel Fattah el-Sisi asking him to open the Rafah crossing point with the besieged territory.
Egypt is building a wall and is leveling land near its border with the Gaza Strip ahead of a planned Israeli offensive targeting the border city of Rafah, satellite images analyzed Friday by The Associated Press show.
Egypt, which has not publicly acknowledged the construction, repeatedly has warned Israel not to forcibly expel the more than 1 million displaced Palestinians now in Rafah into its territory while Israeli troops battle the militant group Hamas for a fifth month.
Israel’s blistering military campaign in the Strip has killed at least 28,663 Palestinians, mostly women and children, and wounded more than 68,000, according to the Health Ministry in Gaza, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants.
The war erupted after Hamas and other militant groups’ attack in Southern Israel where about 1200 people were killed and 250 were taken hostages, some were released during a week ceasefire on November.
