Paris demonstrators defy ban on pro-Palestinian gathering

← Back to Dashboard
📅 12 October 2023 📍 France

Hundreds gathered despite a Paris ban on the demonstration, calling for Palestinian rights and an end to attacks on Gaza. The prohibition followed the Hamas-led attacks in Israel on 7 October and the government’s wider restriction of pro-Palestinian protests. The event raised questions about freedom of assembly and how authorities distinguish political advocacy from incitement or threats to public order. The entry describes the protest and the ban without equating Palestinian solidarity with antisemitism or minimizing the violence against Israeli civilians.
