Mass Rally in Tunisia In Support of Starving Palestinians in Gaza

A mass rally aimed at showing solidarity with starving Palestinians in Gaza was held on Sunday in Tunis, the capital of Tunisia.

Protesters in their hundreds, marched through the streets of Tunis.

The rally took place as anger grows over the worsening humanitarian crisis in Gaza and with global calls on Israel to bring an end to the war.

At the rally, protesters waved Palestinian flags, held signs, and chanted slogans condemning both the Israeli blockade and the silence of Arab governments.

The symbolism was vivid. One protester rhythmically tapped on an empty cooking pot a stark representation of hunger in Gaza, where food and essential supplies have become dangerously scarce.

“The hunger in Gaza has reached rock bottom,” said Lotfi Miloudi, a demonstrator taking part in the march.

“The Palestinian people are starving to death. They are being deliberately starved – not just by the Zionists, but by some Arab states as well.”

As chants of “Normalization is treason” echoed through the streets, many called for stronger action from regional governments.

“Arab countries must do more,” insisted protester Sondos Gheriani, her voice rising over the crowd. “Protests are important, silence has never helped. Even if we can’t send money, our voices must be heard.”

The crowd paused to sing the Tunisian national anthem, a moment of national unity blending with the shared Arab and Islamic cause.

Prominent Tunisian opposition leader Ahmed Nejib Chebbi, head of the National Salvation Front, was seen walking at the center of the demonstration.

Fury also turned toward regional leaders accused of complicity. In a passionate outburst, Loyer Nawel Toumi, one of the demonstrators, shouted: “(Egyptian President) Sissi is the enemy of God! Gaza is fighting for what? For religion, for the Prophet, for our land, the land of Islam. He closed the tunnels after his coup, starving our people in Gaza. Anyone who fights Islam is the enemy of God!”

The march continued through the capital, leaving behind traces of support and resistance – including bold pro-Gaza graffiti sprayed onto the walls of the French Cultural Center.
