According to the Turkish Anadolu news agency on Saturday evening, the protesters gathered in Odensplan Square in response to a call by civil society organizations, expressing their rejection of ongoing Israeli airstrikes on Gaza and Lebanon despite ceasefire agreements.
Participants held signs reading: “Civilians are being killed in Gaza,” “Schools and hospitals are being bombed,” “Stop the attacks on Lebanon,” “End the food shortage,” and “We don’t want war.”
The demonstrators demanded an end to the “genocide” in Gaza and an end to airstrikes on Lebanon. They also called on the Swedish government to halt arms exports to “Israel.”
