In Turkey, tens of thousands of people gathered on Istanbul's Galata Bridge to express solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. Demonstrators waved Turkish and Palestinian flags during the rally, organised by the Turkish Youth Foundation and National Will Platform, a coalition of more than 300 pro-Palestinian and Islamic groups. Bilal Erdogan, the son of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, addressed the crowd, urging support for Gaza and condemning Israel's actions there. He said, "All of this is reminiscent of a very dark period in human history." The war was triggered by Hamas' October 7, 2023 attack on southern Israel in which 1,200 people were killed and 251 were taken hostage. Israel has since killed over 70,000 Paleslinians reportedly.
