Members of Ankara Palestine Solidarity Platform stage protest in front of US Embassy in Ankara

Thousands of people across Türkiye took part in a protest Sunday against Israel's attacks on Gaza under the motto “Gaza is Dying! Rise Up!”

People in several provinces of the country expressed their support for Palestine.

Hundreds gathered at Beyazıt Square in Istanbul for a march that the Turkish non-governmental organization the IHH Humanitarian Relief Foundation had called for days in advance to draw attention to Israel's attacks on the Gaza Strip since Oct. 7, 2023, which have claimed thousands of lives.

Starting at 2 p.m. local time, participants marched along Yeniceri Street chanting slogans such as “Murderer Israel, get out of Palestine” waving Turkish and Palestinian flags.

Members of the Ankara Palestine Solidarity Platform (ANFIDAP) staged a protest in front of the US Embassy in Ankara.

Gathering in front of Tugba Altinok Cukurambar Central Mosque in Ankara, they carried banners saying “Baby-killer Israel” and “People are dying in Gaza, humanity is dying worldwide,” chanting slogans against Israel and the US.
