Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>Members of South African political parties, civil society organisations and other supporters marched through the streets of Johannesburg on Wednesday demanding a permanent cease-fire in Gaza as they marked the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.<\/p>\n

Rival political parties including the ruling African National Congress and the leftist opposition Economic Freedom Fighters were among the scores of demonstrators who marched across the Nelson Mandela Bridge to protest against Israel\u2019s military offensive in Gaza against Hamas.<\/p>\n

Several other protests were planned around South Africa, where many including President Cyril Ramaphosa have compared Israel\u2019s policies in Gaza and the West Bank with South Africa’s past apartheid regime of racial segregation.<\/p>\n

Veteran anti-apartheid activist Ronnie Kasrils called for the boycott and isolation of Israel over the current war. \u201cAll over the world, millions and millions are coming out and saying no, no, no.<\/p>\n

We will boycott and isolate Israel until it hurts them, and we stand by the Palestinian people fully, in our total support,\u201d Kasrils told the crowd. Last week, a majority of South African lawmakers voted in favor of a motion calling for the closure of Israel’s embassy and the suspension of diplomatic relations.<\/p>\n

It came after Israel recalled its ambassador to South Africa following remarks by South African leaders who accused Israel of committing genocide and referred Israel\u2019s attacks on Gaza to the International Criminal Court.<\/p>\n
