Members of the environmental activist group Extinction Rebellion have scaled the Eiffel Tower to display a Palestinian flag in observance of Nakba Day. This day commemorates the displacement of Palestinians that occurred during the establishment of the state of Israel in 1948.
The act of hanging the flag on such an iconic landmark highlights the group's commitment to raising awareness about Palestinian issues. Nakba Day is marked annually on May 15, and the demonstration serves to draw attention to the ongoing struggles faced by Palestinians.
