A large-scale rally titled 'March for Gaza' was held at the historic Suhrawardy Udyan in Dhaka, organized by the Palestine Solidarity Movement. A declaration in support of Palestine was publicly read during the event.
Mahmudur Rahman, editor of Amar Desh, read the declaration from the main stage. It called on Muslim world leaders to sever all ties with Israel and demanded an immediate end to Israeli aggression in Gaza.
People from all walks of life participated in the program, uniting in protest against Israeli brutality and urging global Muslim solidarity. A special prayer for the oppressed people of Palestine was led by Maulana Abdul Malek, the Khatib of the national mosque Baitul Mukarram.
Crowds arrived from various parts of the city, forming processions that converged at Suhrawardy Udyan. The rally drew participation from political figures affiliated with BNP, Jamaat-e-Islami, and NCP, as well as artists, poets, and social media influencers.
Setting aside political divisions, all participants stood together to demand an end to what they described as genocide by Israel. Leaders also called for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and others responsible for the aggression to be held accountable by the International Criminal Tribunal (ICT).
