Hundreds of Palestinians in Israel took part in a Palestine Flag March organised on Friday in the city of Umm Al-Fahm in Israel, Arab48.com reported.

The Palestine Flag March was organised by young Palestinians and sponsored by Palestinian factions and public figures in Israel.

The Palestinian flag was raised during the march by Palestinians wearing the Palestinian keffiyeh chanting anti-Israeli occupation slogans.

Among the chanted slogans was: “Jerusalem is a red line.”

The march came in response to the Israeli Flag March organised annually on 15 June, and in protest against the continuous Israeli aggression in Sheikh Jarrah, Silwan and Al-Aqsa Mosque.
