Protesters called for “an end to the genocide in Gaza and an immediate ceasefire.”
They also called on the Spanish government and the international community to “take urgent, concrete and effective measures against Israel, stop arms trade with it, and boycott the companies involved in the massacre.”
In Madrid, demonstrators raised Palestinian flags and denounced American and European cooperation with Israel.
The leader of the Podemos Party, Ione Belarra, called on the EU to sever all ties with the US and stop surrendering to it. Belarra also denounced Washington’s decision to provide $26 billion in aid to Israel.
