Thousands of demonstrators gather in Washington, DC in solidarity with Palestinians and to call for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war as fighting rages in Gaza for a 29th day since Hamas militants stormed across the Israeli border and, according to Israeli officials, killed more than 1,400 people. Since then, Israel has relentlessly bombarded the Gaza Strip and sent in ground troops, with the health ministry in the Hamas-run Palestinian territory saying 9,488 people have been killed, about two-thirds of them women and children.
