Tens of thousands of people marched across Sydney's Harbor Bridge in heavy rain, demanding peace and increased aid for Gaza amid a worsening humanitarian crisis. Protesters, including families and notable figures, carried pots and pans to symbolize hunger and called for an end to the violence. The march, which drew far more participants than expected, proceeded after a court ruling allowed it despite initial police and government resistance. The demonstration comes as international diplomatic pressure mounts on Israel, with several countries moving to recognize a Palestinian state and calls for a ceasefire intensifying.
