Kites flown across 11 Dutch cities in solidarity with children in Gaza
ROTTERDAM: Kites were flown across 11 cities in the Netherlands on Saturday in solidarity with children in Gaza, Anadolu Ajansi reported.
In a show of solidarity with children in Gaza, kite-flying events were held across 11 Dutch cities on Saturday, according to Anadolu Ajansi. The Plant an Olive Tree Foundation organized these events to highlight attacks on Gaza and to protest Israeli threats of displacement and attacks against Palestinians.
The demonstrations took place in Rotterdam, among other cities, where participants gathered at Noordereiland Square. Those in attendance decorated the kites with Palestinian flags, colors, and messages such as "Free Palestine" and "Save Gaza." Additionally, kites were fashioned to resemble the Palestinian flag.
Following the kite-flying, participants distributed leaflets aimed at raising public awareness and providing information about the situation in Gaza.
