(Canadian Press) Vancouver Police say they are conducting an investigation into a pro-Palestinian protest marking the Oct. 7 anniversary of the Hamas attacks on Israel where they say speakers expressed “solidarity with terrorist groups.”
Police said in a statement Tuesday that they were looking into whether actions at the previous day’s protest represented criminal offences.
The rally at the Vancouver Art Gallery, organized by the group Samidoun, included a masked speaker who told the crowd “we are Hezbollah and we are Hamas,” and she also led cries of “death to Canada, death to the United States and death to Israel.”
Both Hamas and Hezbollah are listed by Public Safety Canada as terrorist entities.
