Dozens of protest actions related to the Palestinian issue are planned in various regions of Greece. In addition to Athens and Thessaloniki, demonstrations are reported to be organized on islands and other popular tourist destinations frequently visited by Israeli tourists.
In connection with the upcoming rallies, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Israel issued safety recommendations for its citizens in Greece. The ministry urged Israelis to stay away from demonstration areas and large public gatherings, refrain from engaging in political disputes, and exercise caution. It was also recommended not to display symbols openly showing Israeli and Jewish identity.
The Israeli side advised its citizens to avoid potential confrontations during the demonstrations and to stay in touch with their relatives. Final information regarding the scale and number of participants in the protests in Greece is expected to be clarified after the events take place.
