Approximately 6,000 Palestinians gathered on the Gaza border fence on Friday, holding the weekly March of Return demonstrations, while a swastika was raised along with a Palestine flag on the fence.
In a tweet posted by the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit, the swastika could be seen underneath the Palestine flag. The IDF tweeted in response that “In the face; Of this hatred; Stand IDF soldiers; Alert and determined; Ready to defend lsrael; Today and every single day.”
