Thousands gathered in Athens' Syntagma Square in response to a call from the Palestinian Community of Greece and the "Initiative for Solidarity with the Palestinian People by Trade Unions Collectives". They rallied to condemn what they described as the genocide of the Palestinian people, and to protest Greece’s cooperation with Israel.

“This massacre is not only backed by the USA, the EU, and NATO, but also receives military, financial, and diplomatic support from the Greek government. We raise our voices together against the slaughter of the Palestinian people. Together for a free Palestine!” the organisers declared.

The protest was also supported by left-wing political parties and grassroots groups.
