Protests in 50 U.S. cities demanding end to U.S.-backed Israeli apartheid

FREE PALESTINE

In response to the Israeli government and Zionist extremists' murderous actions in the last week, there is a new wave of Palestinian mass resistance not only in cities and towns across the West Bank and East Jerusalem, but also in many Palestinian cities inside the 1948 borders of Israel. On May 10, a horrifically violent and desecrating attack on the Al-Aqsa mosque left more than 400 Palestinians wounded, with 250 suffering injuries serious enough to require hospital treatment. 

In the latest escalation, Israel has launched hundreds of air strikes on the Gaza Strip. The death toll now reaches over 65, in Gaza. At least 365 people have been wounded, including 86 children and 39 women. Meanwhile, six people were killed on the Israeli side by rocket fire, including the first death of an Israeli soldier in this round of conflict. About 100 Israelis have also been wounded.
