A pro-Palestine protest is underway outside Sydney Town hall with hundreds of protesters chanting just days after the bloody Hamas attacks on Israel.
Protesters assembled outside the town hall holding signs, Palestinian flags and chanting"Free Palestine".
Earlier this afternoon, Prime Minister Anthony Albanese warned the pro-Palestinian protesters to abandon the rally. Meanwhile, the event was supported by the NSW Greens who posted on their official social media to promote the rally and echoed calls for “no war on Gaza”. The iconic landmark is being lit up in blue and white - the colours of Israel's flag - in solidarity with the 700 victims of the Hamas attack.
