Dozens of protesters rallied against the US Secretary of State Antony Blinken's visit in Ramallah on Tuesday.
During the rally, protesters can be seen holding imitation coffins, some of which had pictures of children who were allegedly killed during the recent Palestine-Israel escalation, while others had the names of said children written on them. The protesters marched in Ramallah with the coffins as well as anti-US banners and signs before being met with riot police.
Amal Khraisheh, a political activist, said that "America's pro-Israel policies have to change to achieve real peace and justice in the Middle East."
Blinken met with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas in Ramallah on Tuesday as Washington aims to bolster the Gaza ceasefire during the top diplomat's visit to the Middle East.
The visit follows a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas which was mediated by Egypt after both sides exchanged rocket fire that lasted for 11 days. Over 240 fatalities were recorded on the Palestinian side with 12 on the Israeli side, according to the respective authorities.
