Massive Pro-Palestinian Rallies Across the US Demand Cease-Fire in Gaza

Around 10,000 pro-Palestinian protesters gathered at the Texas Capitol to call for a cease-fire in the ongoing Israel-Hamas war. The diverse crowd demanded political accountability and accused Governor Greg Abbott and President Joe Biden of complicity in the conflict. Chants, Palestinian flags, and a scroll listing the names of Gazan children killed in Israeli attacks were part of the demonstration. Protesters urged an immediate end to the violence and the retraction of Israeli settlements, advocating for a return to the boundaries established by the Balfour Declaration in 1917.
