VARIOUS OF FANS HOLDING PALESTINIAN FLAGS AND CHANTING SLOGANS DORTMUND, GERMANY - OCT. 1: Athletic Club fans marched to Signal Iduna Park carrying Palestinian flags on Wednesday, Oct. 1, ahead of the UEFA Champions League group stage match against Borussia Dortmund. Supporters were seen chanting slogans and waving flags on their way to the stadium. This marked the first time in years that more than 50 ships have sailed together toward Gaza, carrying 532 civilian supporters from over 45 countries to the enclave of 2.4 million Palestinians that has been under Israeli blockade for roughly 18 years. Israel tightened the siege further on March 2 by closing all border crossings and blocking food, medicine, and aid, pushing Gaza into famine despite aid trucks piling up at its borders. The Israeli army has killed over 66,100 Palestinians, most of them women and children, in Gaza since October 2023. The relentless bombardment has rendered the enclave uninhabitable and led to starvation and the spread of diseases.
