Hundreds of people are marching in Bogota, expressing their anger over Colombia's diplomatic relationship with Israel. Concerns over what they call an ongoing genocide in Gaza fuel this demonstration.
Protesters chant and hold signs demanding a re-evaluation of Colombia's foreign policy. Many in the crowd express solidarity with the Palestinian people, urging their government to cut ties with Israel.
Eyewitnesses say the protest, largely peaceful, is drawing attention from both local residents and international observers. Participants include students, activists, and families, all united by the call for government action.
The demonstration reflects a wider dissatisfaction among some Colombians with their nation's stance on the Middle East conflict, urging lawmakers to listen to public sentiment, according to witnesses on the ground.
