Pro-Palestinian demonstrations that have rocked college campuses in the United States are now gaining traction around the globe. From London and Paris to Rome and Melbourne, young activists are voicing their solidarity with Palestine.
In Melbourne, demonstrators have camped out at the University of Melbourne for the past week, passionately demanding an end to what they describe as \"ethnic cleansing\" in Gaza. The encampment has become a focal point for students and community members alike.
One protester expressed their determination, stating, \"We've erected this monument here to show that we're not going to be deterred, that we are going to keep standing up for Palestine and keep protesting and this encampment is going to continue.\" The sustained presence of activists highlights a growing global movement advocating for Palestinian rights.
These protests reflect a broader trend of increased international activism among young people, leveraging their platforms to influence global policies and raise awareness on critical human rights issues.
