A small but passionate group turned up, yesterday, to host a vigil for Palestine at Boulevard Reserve in Lakemba in Sydney’s south-west.
A tense cease-fire is currently holding in the Middle East after more than a week of violence that saw more than 200 Palestinians killed, including 65 children. 12 people were killed on the Israeli side.
The vigil comes after two large protests in Sydney in the previous weekends. Yesterday’s ceremony was followed by attendees of the vigil handing out leaflets to the public, advertising this Sunday’s rally for Palestine at Sydney Town Hall. A large crowd is expected.
