People across the world mark the International Quds Day to express their solidarity with the Palestinian people and denounce Israeli atrocities against Palestinians in the occupied territories as well as the besieged Gaza Strip.
The International Quds Day is a legacy of the late founder of the Islamic Republic of Iran, Imam Khomeini, who designated the day in solidarity with Palestinians and in opposition against the Israeli regime.
Quds Day events have been held worldwide on the last Friday of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. Today marks this year’s Quds Day.
