Millions in Madrid Show Support for Palestine During World Cup Party
Close to two million people in Madrid waved Palestinian flags and chanted "Free Palestine" during Spain's July 20 World Cup victory party. Teenager Lamine Yamal had done the same at Barcelona's May celebration. Israel's defense minister accused him of stirring hatred; Spain's leader, Sánchez, defended him. Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank cheered Spain's win over the flag gesture.
