The Telegraph published this video item, entitled “Pro-Palestinian activists clash with police in Philippines” – below is their description.
Pro-Palestinian activists in the #philippines clashed with police officers while on a march to denounce U.S. support for Israel in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Over 200 activists were eventually allowed to hold a protest outside the U.S. embassy in Manila, where they held signs with slogans such as “Stand up for Gaza”.
Renato Reyes, secretary-general of activist group #bayan told reporters the U.S. had an “overwhelming responsibility” for events happening in #gaza.
Washington has rebuffed calls from Arab and Palestinian leaders and others to call on Israel to halt its assault on the Hamas-controlled Gaza strip, but it has urged for humanitarian pauses to allow more aid in and to evacuate Americans and foreigners.
Hamas launched a surprise attack on Israel on October 7 which killed at least 1,400 people. Israel has since retaliated by striking Gaza from the air, imposed a siege and launched a ground assault, stirring global alarm at humanitarian conditions in the enclave.
