Tens of thousands of pro-Palestine demonstrators in Istanbul have protested the ongoing Israeli genocide in Palestine’s Gaza, causing tragic humanitarian crisis and starvation in the besieged enclave. Under the banner “Be the Light of Hope for Gaza,” they gathered at Beyazit Square on August 9 after the evening prayer and walked together toward the historic Ayasofya Mosque — carrying lanterns symbolising the light of hope amid the darkness.
