"Thousands of demonstrators marched through Dublin on Saturday to mark the UN International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. Footage shows crowds chanting as they moved through the city centre, many carrying Palestinian and Lebanese flags, while others held placards reading 'Shame on this government' and 'Boycott Israel'. "I'm here today to show solidarity with the people of Gaza and to try and hold the Irish government accountable for their own actions in whitewashing this genocide. There's a lot more that can be done. More sanctions can definitely be brought in. And I think it's just appalling," one protester said. Another demonstrator highlighted the scale of destruction in Gaza and criticised international governments for failing to act. "The lack of humanity and the absolute genocide, and the world is really being quiet, especially the Arab neighbours are not making a stand," he said. "When you see children shot through the head deliberately, […] doctors who have done amputations without anaesthetic, put on caesarean sections in wards and the destruction of hospitals, water, the environment," he added. Organisers said more than 170 activist groups joined the march from the Garden of Remembrance to Leinster House. November 29 marks the UN International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. Demonstrations were held worldwide, commemorating 78 years since the UN adopted its resolution proposing the creation of both Arab and Jewish states."
