Hundreds of thousands of people dressed in red marched through the streets of The Hague on Sunday to demand more action against the “genocide” in Gaza.

NGOs such as Amnesty International, Save the Children, Médecins Sans Frontières (Doctors Without Borders), and Oxfam organized the demonstration, which ran through the city to the International Court of Justice. The protesters were all dressed in red, creating a “red line”.

Organisers described it as the country’s largest demonstration in two decades. Many waving Palestinian flags and some chanting “Stop the Genocide”, the demonstrators turned a central park in the city into a sea of red on a sunny afternoon.

    They all say 150.000 which is tens of thousands and not hundreds of thounds. Its an impressive number no need to pretend its more. That just makes the news outlet look bad

        I would understand hundreds of thousands starts at 200.000. At this logic 100.001 would already be hundreds of thousands, what makes no sense to me. But yeah, maybe its not that important as I made to be in my first comment.
