Mass Protests in Amsterdam and Paris Against Fascism, Racism, and Discrimination

Thousands demonstrated in the streets of Amsterdam, Paris, and Toulouse against racism and fascism on the occasion of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.

More than 10,000 people gathered at Dam Square in Amsterdam, while Paris witnessed the largest protest with over 21,000 participants.

The demonstrations in the Netherlands, organized by the March 21 Committee, came just a day after the celebration of the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, with protesters waving flags in support of Palestine and against the rise of the far right.

In France, the Ministry of the Interior reported that around 91,000 people participated in protests across the country, where clashes with police occurred, resulting in the arrest of two individuals and injuries to three others.
