Copenhagen: 10,000 demonstrated against Israeli aggression on Gaza


On Tuesday evening, 10,000 people gathered in central Copenhagen to demand an end to the Israeli aggression against Gaza and a lifting of the blockade on Gaza. The rally was organized by Mellemfolkelige Samvirke and the Danish-Palestinian Friendship Association. Enhedlisten (Unity List, a leftwing party) politician Frank Aaen (video below) demanded economic boycott and freezing of the EU-Israel association treaty in his speech. Enhedslisten has also demanded that the Israeli ambassador be kicked out of Denmark.
