Several thousand people gathered on Saturday afternoon in a park near Basel train station, during a national pro-Palestinian demonstration. The authorities authorized this gathering.
The call for the demonstration was launched by the Swiss-Palestine Federation and co-signed by around a hundred organizations, from various committees for Palestine to queer feminist movements and far-left parties.
The participants demand, among other things, an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip and Lebanon, economic sanctions against Israel and an end to Switzerland’s cooperation with Israel at the scientific level.
