Iran Press/Africa: Supporters of International Quds Day, which takes place on the last Friday of Ramadan, have also called on South Africa's government to sever all ties with Israel.
Leader of the Qibla Movement, Imam Ahmed Cassiem, said the march is aimed at raising awareness about oppressed people globally, SABC News reported.
“Quds Day is the day of unity and solidarity to all the oppressed masses across the world. So it’s solidarity with Venezuela, with Yemen, with Libya, with Sudan. The unity of the oppressed masses is essential if we are to make any progress in getting rid of the colonial, imperialist and neo-colonial system. Without the unity of the oppressed, we are bound to fail,” he added.
