Thousands of Dutch demonstrate in opposition to the visit of the Israeli president and in support of Gaza. Head of the Palestinian community in the Netherlands, Ayman Najma, said that large numbers exceeding thousands are participating in this demonstration.

Najma added that "our Dutch government not only supported and sent weapons to this brutal entity, and sent aid and political support in the corridors of international institutions" The opening of this museum comes about 79 years after World War II, and was scheduled to open last year, at a cost of more than $28 million.
