Iranian Jewish students and Jewish community gathered in front of the United Nations office in Tehran on Tuesday morning 30 Dec in order to protest Israeli war crimes and the slaughter of the innocent people in Gaza Strip.
The protestors, accompanied by Representative of Jewish Community at Majlis, Siamak Mara-Sedq, carried placards with anti-Israel slogans in both Farsi and Hebrew. Condemning Israel's savage attacks on defenseless people of Gaza for four days running, the protesters called for restoration of peace and security to the region.
"We are here to express our support and sympathy with the Palestinian nation" Rahmatollah Rafi, the chairman of Iran's Jewish community, said at the rally. The Jewish official also criticized certain Arab governments for their inaction and silence towards Israeli inhuman acts and war crimes in Gaza and the entire Palestinian territories.
