The attack of Israeli soldiers who killed hundreds of Palestinians trying to protest the new embassy of US in Jerusalem, has been protested by thousands of people who gathered in Tunel Square and march into Galatasaray Square in Taksim-Istanbul.

With the call of BDS (The Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions movement), many political parties, unions and revolutionary organisation attended the protest. Devrimci Anarşist Faaliyet (DAF) has also attended the protest with the pancards in turkish and arabic which is written “The people who resist will win.”

The protest has been trying to be cut by police in Tunel Square; but the insistence of the protesters forced police to open the way to Galatsaray Square. During the protest, slogans as “The children who throw stones in Palestine will win”, “Salutes to the ones who fight in Palestine”, “Boycott to Israel, Freedom to Palestine” have been shouted  by the protesters.

The press briefing has been read in turkish and arabic in Galatasaray Square. In the press briefing, the strategy of moving US embassy to Jerusalem has been underlined as the date is the same with Nakba. Nakba is still going on for 70 years and Israel state is making “ethnic cleansing”.

Protest has been finished with the solidarity slogans and boycott call to Israel.
