The gathering came on the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. In 1977, the United Nations’ General Assembly called for the day to be observed annually on Nov. 29.
The date coincides with Nov. 29, 1947, when the U.N. voted on the partition plan of Palestine and the creation of the independent Jewish state of Israel.

The U.N. in Geneva marked the day in solidarity with the Palestinians, said Tatiana Valovaya, U.N. Geneva’s director-general.
“The commemoration is a timely opportunity to reaffirm international solidarity with the Palestinian people and their right to live in peace and dignity,” she posted online.
Pro-Palestinian protesters have accused Israel of indiscriminately killing civilians in Gaza after the terror group attacked the Jewish state on Oct. 7, 2023.
