OVER 700 baby vests lined Parliament Square today in a powerful tribute to Gaza’s murdered infants.
The action honoured the infants less than one year old killed in the genocide that have been named by Gaza’s Ministry of Health.
Tara Dupraz, from the Women Rising coalition, one of the organisers, said: “We have gathered 710 baby vests to honour those named, though we know the true number is far higher and that thousands more infants now suffer from severe injuries, malnutrition, and disease.”
