On Saturday, kites were flown across 11 cities in the Netherlands as a show of solidarity with children in Gaza. Organized by the Plant an Olive Tree Foundation, the events aimed to highlight attacks on Gaza and protest Israeli threats of displacement and attacks against Palestinians.

In Rotterdam, a gathering took place at Noordereiland Square, where participants of all ages decorated kites with Palestinian flags, colors, and messages such as "Free Palestine" and "Save Gaza." Additionally, kites were fashioned in the shape and colors of the Palestinian flag and flown during the demonstration.

Upon concluding the event, organizers distributed leaflets to raise public awareness and share information about the ongoing situation in Gaza. The act of flying kites across multiple Dutch cities served as a powerful symbol of support and compassion for the children suffering in Gaza.
