Amsterdam, Netherlands - August 17, 2024

Large crowds gathered in Amsterdam, the capital of the Netherlands, to protest against Israel's ongoing military operations in Gaza on Saturday, condemning Dutch government for its failure to call out Israel's actions.

Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters, holding anti-war banners and chanting slogans like "Free Palestine", marched through the streets, urging the Dutch government to take action against Israel's actions in Gaza.

The Palestinian death toll from the ongoing Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip has risen to 40,099, with a total of 92,609 people wounded since the latest round of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict began on October 7, 2023, according to health authorities in the besieged Palestinian enclave on Sunday.

I hope this, Inshallah (God willing in Arabic), will end soon because this is not normal. For almost a year, we've been watching blown-up children, blown-up mothers, fathers. I don't have words. It breaks me. It breaks us all. This just has to stop now.";
