PKS condemns Israel's 'cruelty'
YOGYAKARTA: More than 1,000 members of the Prosperous Justice
Party (PKS) staged a rally on Friday in Yogyakarta, condemning
Israel's attack on Palestine recently that killed a senior leader
of Palestine's right wing group Hamas.
Party members held a rally after they completed Friday
prayers. They started a long march from Syuhada Mosque, Kota
Baru, proceeded along Jl. Sudirman and Jl. Malioboro and ended at
the Yogyakarta post office intersection, in the heart of the
city. Along their way to the intersection they yelled anti-Israel
slogans.
In the protest, coordinator Muhammad Rozai demanded the UN
find a way to stop Israeli imperialism in Palestine.
The rally was held after the death of Abdel-Aziz al-Rantissi,
who was killed after an Israeli air strike last week on
Palestinian soil. -- JP
