The Iraqi News Agency (INA) correspondent stated, "Crowds of citizens organized a march in Baghdad and the governorates to declare their solidarity with Islamic countries on the occasion of International Jerusalem Day, in the presence of religious, tribal, and political figures."
He added, "The participants in the march denounced the brutal crimes committed by the Zionist entity against the Palestinian people in Gaza, which resulted in the martyrdom of thousands of Palestinians and major destruction of infrastructure."
