Spanish protest and undercurrent of intl. call for boycott Israel
Thousands gathered in central Madrid to protest the genocide in Gaza following bombings that killed hundreds and ended the ceasefire.
Organized by the BDS and RESCOP, the demonstration condemned complicity of the West in the Gaza genocide since October 7, 2023.
The protesters demanded an end to the aggression and stronger international intervention.
We urge the international community to enforce a cease fire and sanction Israel for violating the humanitarian law in Gaza, diplomatic and trade ties must not continue with a regime that disregards international law.
Fernando Ruiz, BDS Activist
Protesters condemned the Israeli regime for not abiding by the ceasefire agreement and refusing to finalize phase two of the deal.
Israel is showing that it never had any intention of honoring the ceasefire agreed upon with international guarantors. It has all been a facade allowing Israeli forces to reorganize and rethink their alliance with the most radical elements of the government.

The latest attacks follow Washington's green light for Israel's actions after consultations between the Zionist entity and the United States.
The UN, China, the UK and other countries, have called for an end to the bombings and a return to the ceasefire, but have failed to take any practical action to end the bloodshed.
My presence here today is an act of humanity. We cannot remain indifferent to this tragedy. I have a special friend in Gaza, and I don't know if she and her family are still alive. We must stop this genocide and keep taking to the streets.
Cristina Robles, Activist for Palestine
Experts suggest that Israel's shift in its aggressive campaign is driven by the need for political support within its fragile coalition.
By catering to far-right factions, the cabinet meets its extreme demands to avoid a collapse.
This strategy prioritizes political survival over peace efforts, worsening the conflict.
Demonstrators in Madrid, like other cities across Spain, have flooded the streets demanding an end to Israel's relentless assault on Gaza as it's taking a heavy toll on civilians.
The protesters cry out for urgent international action but will the world act before it's too late?
