Thousands join Israeli flag march through Muslim quarter of Jerusalem
Israel’s far-right national security minister, Itamar Ben-Gvir, was among the crowd for an annual march through the Muslim quarter of Jerusalem. It is funded and promoted by the Jerusalem city government and celebrates Israel’s capture and occupation of East Jerusalem and its holy sites in the war of 1967. The march has been marred by racism and attacks on Palestinians for years and on Monday groups were heard chanting ‘Gaza is ours’, ‘death to the Arabs’ and ‘may their villages burn’. One banner, seen near the Damascus Gate of al-Aqsa mosque compound, read ‘Jerusalem 1967, Gaza 2025’
