Massive Protests in New York Oppose Conference Promoting West Bank Settlement Sales

New york city: Massive protests were held in New York City rejecting a conference organized by companies linked to Israeli settlements, which included presentations offering real estate and land for sale in the West Bank. According to Palestine News and Information Agency - WAFA, demonstrators emphasized that holding such events in the United States constitutes an attempt to market settlement activity and profit from seized Palestinian land. They also noted that the land being offered is located in areas considered occupied territory under international law. Participants waved Palestinian flags and chanted slogans condemning the conference, demanding a halt to any activity that promotes or financially supports settlement activity. Participants, including activists and organizations supporting Palestinian rights, expressed their rejection of the conference, considering it an attempt to legitimize settlement expansion despite repeated international condemnations.
