In solidarity with Palestine, comrades clashed with police at Mexico City’s Zionist embassy during an “Urgent Action for Rafah” protest on Tuesday.
Masked protesters threw stones at security forces and hurled smoke bombs over police barricades, local media reported. Around 200 people joined the protest and social media videos and photos from the scene show multiple blazes erupting near the Zionist compound.
The protests follow a Zionist strike that set fire to a refugee camp in Rafah, the southern Gaza city where hundreds of thousands are sheltering from Israel’s genocidal war.
People have banded together to organize “all eyes on Rafah” campaigns this week, in protest of the occupation’s strike on Rafah. “All eyes on Rafah” protests also took place in Paris, Washington, D.C., London, and Ottawa.
Hamas fired a barrage of long-range rockets at Tel Aviv from Rafah on Monday.
Pro-Palestinian activists in America have ramped up their efforts as the occupation continues its offensive in Rafah, especially after an explosion in Rafah killed dozens of Palestinians in a tent camp this week.
