Niamey (IP) - Muslim people and supporters of Palestine in Niger expressed their solidarity with the Palestinians living in the Gaza Strip by holding a demonstration in Niamey's Resistance Square.

Iran PressAfrica: Demonstrators on Friday evening in Niamey's Resistance Square, while carrying the Palestinian flag, chanted the slogans "Death to Israel", "Death to America", as well as "Long live Palestine" and "End the Palestinian Genocide".

Muslims and supporters of Palestine in Niger condemned the crimes of the Israeli regime in the Gaza Strip and called on the international community to hold the regime accountable.

Niger demonstrators also placed the flags of France, America, and the Israeli regime on the ground and set them on fire at the end of the demonstration.

On October 7, the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas launched Operation Al-Aqsa Storm deep into the territories occupied by the Israeli regime in reaction to the recurring desecration of al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied al-Quds, the 16-year-old blockade of Gaza as well as intensified Israeli atrocities against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.

The campaign killed at least 1,500 Israeli forces and settlers and injured more than 4,800 others.

Meanwhile, Israel conducted intensive air strikes on civilian targets in the Gaza Strip, killing more than 4,100 Palestinians in Gaza and wounding over 13,000 others.
