Gaza Palestinians demonstrate against U.S.-led strikes on Syria

Xinhua,April 15, 2018 Adjust font size:

GAZA, April 15 (Xinhua) -- Dozens of people protested on Sunday in the Palestinian Gaza Strip against Saturday's U.S.-led military attack on Syria.

Protestors waved Syrian and Palestinian flags in Unknown Soldier Square in Gaza city, while others burnt American flags.

Event organizers said the strikes aimed to punish Syria for rejecting the America's domination to control the wealth and resources of the nation.

Demonstrators said the attack was a blatant violation of Syria's sovereignty that embodied the policies which the U.S. and its followers were trying to impose on the world.

The United States, along with Britain and France, launched joint airstrikes on military targets in Syria on Saturday for its alleged use of chemical weapons against civilians early this month.

The allegations, strongly denied by Syria and Russia, have not been independently investigated and verified. Enditem
