Tens of thousands demonstrate in The Hague to demand an end to the war of extermination in Gaza.

The Hague, Netherlands, witnessed a massive demonstration on Sunday evening, demanding that the Dutch government take further action to stop the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip.

Human rights groups, such as Amnesty International and Oxfam, organized the march in the city, which headed to the International Court of Justice, declaring what was happening a "red line."

The protesters, who numbered around 150,000, dressed in red, according to organizers, waved Palestinian flags and chanted, "Stop the genocide." Some held signs reading, "Don't turn a blind eye, act," and "Be silent when children sleep, not when they are killed."

"The people of Gaza cannot wait," they said in their call to action. "It is the Netherlands' duty to do everything possible to stop the Israeli genocide."
