Free, free, free Palestine!
00:08
Hundreds of people gathered in Bukit Bintang on Saturday
00:11
to express solidarity with Palestinians
00:14
and protest against Israel's brutality towards Gaza.
00:17
This was the second rally organised at the same location
00:20
by Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions, BDS Malaysia.
00:24
The event began at 8pm near a fast food outlet
00:28
and proceeded around the shopping centres in the area.
00:31
Free, free, free Palestine!
00:33
BDS Malaysia's Secretary General Farwina Farok
00:36
said the rally was organised to amplify support for Palestinians.
00:42
Palestinians, they told me, because I have many friends from Palestine
00:46
in Gaza right now, they say that what keeps them going
00:49
is us, the crowd, showing solidarity with them.
00:54
So we are doing something, we are giving them strength.
00:57
As a consumer we can boycott strategically
00:59
because we are from Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement.
01:01
They need to divest themselves from companies
01:03
that are involved with Israel, involved with the genocide
01:07
and involved with the occupation of Palestine.
01:08
Free, free, free Palestine!
01:10
Another protester, Putri Nourshahira,
01:13
said this was her fourth rally in support of Palestinian solidarity.
01:17
The 25-year-old emphasised the importance of public demonstrations,
01:22
noting that even small actions can significantly impact the cause.
01:26
I'm a big fan of fast food and all that, but I stopped.
01:31
Because that's all I can do.
01:32
Because I can't do anything else.
01:34
That's all I can do.
01:35
My message is to speak up for the people of Palestine,
01:39
pray for them and join protests like this.
01:41
The rally also saw participation from many foreigners
01:45
who wore keffiyeh, a traditional Palestinian scarf,
01:48
to show their solidarity with the Palestinian cause.
01:51
Free, free Palestine!
01:53
Free, free Palestine!
01:55
Salaam alaikum!
01:57
Salaam alaikum!
01:59
Salaam alaikum!
02:00
We did not give up!
02:02
We did not forget!
02:03
Free, free, free Palestine!
02:05
Free, free, free Palestine!
02:07
Free, free, free Palestine!
