Hundreds of people gather in the South African town of Cape Town for a pro-Palestinian march, amidst the ongoing conflict in Gaza. Chanting slogans and carrying flags, banners and signs, the crowd moved through the streets. The war started after Hamas's October 7 attack on southern Israel resulted in the deaths of 1,170 people, mostly civilians, according to an AFP tally of Israeli official figures. Israel's retaliatory offensive has killed at least 34,535 people in Gaza, mostly women and children according to the Hamas-run territory's health ministry. IMAGES
People waved rainbow flags and danced to celebrate the LGBTQ+ Pride in Romania's capital city Bucharest on Saturday. The march was attended by around 25,000 people, making it the biggest since the first pride parade took place in the country in 2005, according to ACCEPT NGO, one of the organisers. In May, the European Court of Human Rights ruled that EU member Romania, which does not allow same-sex marriage, was violating the rights of couples by refusing to recognise their unions. IMAGES
