[62795] Pro-Palestinian activists hung the Palestinian flag on the Eiffel Tower in Paris


Six activists were arrested in Paris after hanging a Palestinian flag on the Eiffel Tower as a protest against the war in Gaza.

Protest incident in Paris: Palestinian flag raised on the Eiffel Tower

Over the last 24 hours, a prominent protest incident was reported in the French capital, Paris, in which pro-Palestinian activists hung the Palestinian flag on the Eiffel Tower. According to a report by the channel TRT Haber, which is associated with distinct pro-Palestinian positions, the activists chose this step to "respond to what they defined as a genocide being carried out by Israel in Gaza."

Additional media outlets confirmed the details of the event but focused on the legal consequences of the act. According to DoğruHaber, a channel with a religious-conservative orientation, the demonstrators called to continue the Palestinian struggle "until Palestine is free and we are all free." At the same time, the channel reported that French security forces arrested six activists who were involved in the display.

The report on the arrests was also confirmed by Sansürsüz Medya +18, which presents a direct and sometimes blunt journalistic line, which reported succinctly that the local police acted quickly against the demonstrators. As of this hour, the authorities in France have yet to issue a detailed official statement on further legal proceedings against the detainees.
