Solidarity activists in the Netherlands launched kites simultaneously across 11 cities in support of Gaza, Shehab Wire reported. The coordinated action used the symbolic gesture of kite-flying to express solidarity with Palestinians and draw attention to the situation in the territory.
The campaign unfolded in multiple Dutch municipalities as part of broader international efforts to demonstrate support for Gaza. Kite-flying has held particular significance in Palestinian culture and resistance movements, making the choice of method meaningful to organizers. The synchronized demonstrations across the 11 cities underscored the scale of public mobilization around the issue among Dutch civil society groups.
