Major demonstration in Indonesia demand end to Zionist aggression against Gaza

JAKARTA, Nov. 12 (YPA) – Hundreds of thousands of Indonesians participated in a massive demonstration on Sunday morning in the city of Bekasi, near the Indonesian capital, Jakarta, in support of Palestine and to demand an end to the ongoing Zionist-US aggression against the Gaza Strip.

According to local media sources, the demonstration was called for by the “Indonesia Scholars Council,” which is one of the most influential Islamic bodies in the country, the Muhammadiyah Islamic Organization, and a number of well-known figures locally.

Participants in the massive demonstration raised Palestinian flags and chanted slogans demanding curbing the Zionist aggression against Gaza and stopping the systematic targeting of schools and hospitals.

Last week, the National Monument Park Square (central Jakarta) witnessed one of the largest rallies that took place across the world in support of Gaza, with organizers estimating the number of people who participated in it at about one million people.
