3,700 demonstrations in support of the Palestinian cause

The Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip resulted in hundreds of demonstrations around the world, which began in the wake of Operation “Al-Aqsa Flood” and continue until now in large waves, witnessed by dozens of Arab, European and American cities.


According to the Armed Conflict Locations and Events Data Project, during the first three weeks of the Israeli aggression on the Gaza Strip, nearly 4,200 events related to the aggression were recorded in nearly 100 countries and regions, representing 38% of all events reported globally.


According to the institute's figures, the world has witnessed about 3,700 demonstrations in support of the Palestinians and 520 demonstrations in support of the Israeli occupation state, worldwide since October 7.


It is estimated that there were about 1,400 demonstrations in the Middle East and North Africa, and about 600 of them in the United States.


About 55% of the demonstrations took place in the region, while 90% of the demonstrations were in support of the Palestinian people, and 13% were supportive of Israel, as the number is calculated in a single event in which demonstrations take place simultaneously and repeatedly.


The countries with the highest demonstrations were the United States (600 demonstrations), then Yemen (490 demonstrations), then Turkey (357), and later Iran (276), and Morocco (267).


Germany witnessed about 160 demonstrations, while the British capital and the American capital, Washington, witnessed large demonstrations, in addition to the Yemeni capital, Sanaa.
