  • Participants called for an end to violence in Gaza and urged sanctions against Israel, while some critics labeled the protests unsafe.

  • The Gaza conflict has resulted in over 60,000 deaths and severe humanitarian shortages, according to Palestinian authorities.
  • We demand an end to this genocide in Gaza and to demand that our government sanction Israel.
    — Josh Lees, organiser of the protests in Sydney.
