nnTens of thousands marched across Sydney’s Harbour Bridge on Sunday in a pro-Palestinian protest authorized hours earlier by the Supreme Court after police initially blocked it. Despite heavy rain, demonstrators carried banners demanding a ceasefire and humanitarian aid for Gaza, with notable attendees including Julian Assange and former NSW Premier Bob Carr. Two hours into the march, police ordered participants to stop and turn back due to safety concerns about crowd density. The Palestine Action Group organized the event as a response to the Gaza humanitarian crisis, which overcame legal challenges when a judge ruled safety concerns didn’t justify prohibiting the protest. The NSW Jewish Board of Deputies expressed disappointment at the court’s decision to allow the demonstration.
