Men, women, children, and elderly citizens assembled in front of the Melike Hatun Mosque before marching down Ataturk Boulevard toward July 15 Kizilay National Will Square. The demonstration, held under tight police security, featured Palestinian flags and banners condemning Israel’s actions in Gaza. After prayers and speeches calling for global awareness and justice for Palestinians, the crowd dispersed peacefully. Israeli naval forces intercepted and seized vessels of the Global Sumud Flotilla late Wednesday, detaining more than 470 activists from over 50 countries. Some of the activists who returned to their home countries in the past two days reported being mistreated during Israeli detention. They were denied clean food and water while in custody and subjected to psychological abuse throughout their detention period. The Global Sumud Flotilla aimed to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza and challenge Israel's blockade of the region, which faces severe famine conditions. Since October 2023, Israeli bombardments have killed more than 67,000 Palestinians in Gaza, primarily women and children. These attacks have made the enclave uninhabitable, while the ongoing blockade has further pushed the population toward famine.
