At least 75 pro-Palestinian protests planned worldwide on Oct. 7 anniversary, many deemed high risk
The Ministry for Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism released data on the pro-Palestinian demonstrations and anti-Israel events, with a number of them being classified as high-risk events.
At least 75 protests condemning Israel are planned across the globe on October 7, marking three years since Hamas' attack on the country. The events, reported by the Ministry for Diaspora Affairs and Combating Antisemitism, will span from October 1 to October 14, with most taking place on October 7 itself. However, 87 events have been deemed high or medium risk.
Countries with the most events include the US (45), Spain (40), Australia (21), the UK (19), and Italy (16). Notably, Canada has four high-risk events, with two taking place near Israeli embassies or properties. The analysis also reveals connections to terror groups, with the PFLP-linked Palestinian Youth Movement (PYM) associated with several high-risk events in North America.
