Thousands of protesters across the world poured into the streets overnight Tuesday to protest the inhumane attack on a Gaza Strip hospital that killed hundreds of civilians.

In Türkiye rallies erupted in most of 81 provinces to condemn the attack. Several Muslim-majority countries also announced days of mourning for the victims.

Numerous demonstrators gathered in front of the Israeli Consulate in Istanbul. Demonstrators waved Palestinian flags and chanted. Police were on the scene with a large contingent to protect the consulate.

Meanwhile, in Germany’s capital, Berlin, police intervened to break up a pro-Palestinian vigil. According to police, more than 300 people had gathered at the Brandenburg Gate – a Deutsche Presse-Agentur (dpa) photographer estimated the crowd at about 1,000.

Police said on the social media platform X that clashes broke out when police officers prevented protesters from marching further.
