SYDNEY: Thousands of demonstrators braved pouring rain to march across Sydney’s iconic Harbor Bridge on Sunday calling for peace and aid deliveries in the war-torn Gaza Strip, where a humanitarian crisis has been worsening. Nearly two years into a war that Palestinian authorities say has killed more than 60,000 people in Gaza, governments and humanitarian organizations say a shortage of food is leading to widespread starvation. Some of those attending the march, called by its organizers the ‘March for Humanity’, carried pots and pans as symbols of the hunger.

Supreme court judge says protest motivated by belief that ‘the horror and urgency of the situation in Gaza demands an urgent and extraordinary response’
