Thousands of Moroccans have protested in Rabat in support of Palestinians and to condemn normalisation with Israel, holding portraits of killed Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh.
Waving Palestinian flags, and brandishing pictures of Haniyeh and a cardboard coffin adorned with his image, thousands of people marched to the parliament building with black and white keffiyeh scarves – symbols of the Palestinian cause – draped across their shoulders.
“Greetings from Rabat to our Gazan friends and to the Al-Qassam (Brigades)”, the crowd chanted, referring to the armed wing of Hamas.
“The people want the end of normalisation”, they also chanted, a message also carried on their placards.
Some in the crowd burnt an Israeli flag.
The rally was organised by the National Action Group for Palestine, which brings together leftist groups and the Islamist Justice and Development Party.
