Israel-Hamas war: hundreds defy ban to hold rally in support of Palestine in France

Several hundred people defied a police ban Thursday and demonstrated in Paris to denounce Israel's military actions and show support for Palestinians. Helmeted riot police sprayed tear gas and water cannons to chase the crowd away.

Protesters, largely young people from various backgrounds supporting the Palestinian cause, sprayed 'Free Palestine'' on the monument underpinning the Republic Plaza in eastern Paris.

Many wore Palestinian flags around their shoulders, and chanted “We are all Palestinians".

Earlier this week thousands of people marched in Paris in support of Israel and the Eiffel Tower was lit up with a Star of David and the blue and white of the Israeli flag.
