STORYLINE:
Hundreds of protesters rallied in the Afghan capital on Friday in a show of solidarity with Palestinians in the Gaza strip.

Protesters marching through the streets of Kabul, waving Palestinian flags and chanting anti-American and anti-Israeli slogans.

The war in Gaza began after Hamas-led militants stormed into southern Israel on October 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting another 250.

Israel’s retaliatory response has killed around 54,000 Palestinians, mostly women and children, according to the Gaza Health Ministry, which does not distinguish between civilians and combatants in its tally.

Israeli airstrikes killed at least 14 people in the Gaza Strip, hospital officials said Friday, while Hamas was reviewing a new Israeli-approved ceasefire proposal after giving it an initial cool response.
