Paris Fountain Runs Red: Activists Demand Gaza Ceasefire
Activists in Paris stage a dramatic protest, dyeing the Fontaine des Innocents red to demand an immediate ceasefire in Gaza. The demonstration, which involved members of Greenpeace and Amnesty International, highlights growing international concern over the ongoing conflict. Jean-François Julliard, Executive Director of Greenpeace France, stated, "This is about clearly pointing out the Israeli government's criminal activities and demanding an immediate and lasting ceasefire." The protest also directly targeted French President Emmanuel Macron, urging him to take stronger action to end the violence. The symbolic act of staining the fountain red served as a stark visual representation of the bloodshed in Gaza and the urgency of the situation.
