Thousands expected to join protests across Australia over Gaza attacks as death toll rises Mostafa Rachwani © Provided by The Guardian Photograph: Anadolu Agency/Getty Images Pro-Palestinian protests are being organised across Australia for the second weekend running, as activists look to step up their efforts in light of escalating violence in the Gaza Strip and West Bank. A wide range of groups are holding events in solidarity with Palestinians, including in Sydney, Melbourne, Wollongong, Perth, Adelaide, Brisbane, Canberra and Tasmania. It also comes after a Global Day of Action organised by local activists, during which people were encouraged to post photos of themselves holding pro-Palestinian banners, and to send emails to their MPs, calling for the Australian government to urge for a ceasefire.
