South Africa: at the scene of the Sharpeville massacre, tribute to the Palestinians bombed in Gaza. In South Africa, pro-Palestinian groups continue to mobilize in support of the Gazan population.
The plight of the Palestinian people still resonates particularly strongly in the rainbow nation, often compared to apartheid. On March 21, 1960, thousands of residents of Sharpevile, a township 80 kilometers from Johannesburg, were peacefully demonstrating against the pass policy. Men, women, children... more than 300 civilians were injured or killed.
