A PROTEST was held at Glasgow Green on Sunday in memory of the children killed by Israel in Gaza.
Organised by Mothers Against Genocide, the group set up clothes lines in the public park which beared pegs holding children’s socks.
On each one, the name of a child killed in Gaza was written.
On average at least one Palestinian child has been killed every hour by Israeli forces in Gaza over nearly 23 months of the genocide, with the number of children killed now surpassing 20,000, according to Save the Children.
A sign was also erected which said: "A Palestinian mother loves her child as much as you love yours."
"On this UN International Day of Peace, we gathered at the drying green on Glasgow Green to memorialise the children murdered in Gaza since the onset of genocide in October 23,” a group spokesperson said.
"As Mothers Against Genocide Scotland we have been working for months on documenting the names of each individual child murdered by Israel; and this is the first display of them altogether. Each peg bears a handwritten child’s name.
"And even though we filled the green today, this is a tiny proportion of all the children lost forever; families devastated, futures never realised. Today was only from the first year of genocide and only aged 0-3.
"We wanted to honour these children, mourn them and display a call to action. We know there are so many more, and our work is not done."
