Pro-Palestine Protest Takes To Valletta’s Streets

Pro-Palestine Protest Takes To Valletta's Streets

A demonstration in support of Palestine, led by Moviment Graffitti and several other local activists, took to Valletta’s streets, calling for an end to the bombardment currently taking place in Gaza. 

Along with the Embassy for Palestine, activists called on Western countries, including European institutions and figures, to ‘stop taking the side of the oppressor and condemn unequivocally the genocide in Gaza’ and to ‘sanction Israel for its war crimes and colonialism.’ 

With Palestinian flags and placards reading ‘Free Palestine’ and ‘Stop Bombing Gaza’, the crowd was addressed by Palestinian locals who shared how their families back home were being massacred. 

This comes after European Parliament President Roberta Metsola’s visit to Israel along with European Commission President Ursula von Der Leyen. 

The response by the world leaders was met with mixed feelings, with many urging them to work harder to stop the genocide in Gaza and to condemn Israel’s actions. 

Metsola and other EU leaders and institutions condemned the terrorist attacks by Hamas and, expressing solidarity with Israel, said that they will be working towards a ‘fair two-state solution’ and that ‘humanitarian aid reaches those in need, that civilians are not targeted and that safe corridors are maintained.’

Chelsea Star Scores First International Goal In Malta
Oct 18 2023 Share

Chelsea star Mykhailo Mudryk found the net in a stunning goal for Ukraine against Malta yesterday evening, Wednesday 18th October 2023. 

The match saw Malta’s Paul Mbong score in the 12th minute, with goals by Artem Dovbyk, Mudryk and an unfortunate Maltese own goal by Ryan Camenzuli sealing the win for the away team. 

Mudryk’s 85th minute goal went down well for Chelsea fans looking on, convinced he will be the pivotal key for a victory against Arsenal next weekend. 

The winger was signed for Chelsea last January in a transfer that could rack up to about £88 million. 

The Maltese, on their part, exhibited one of their best performances in the Euro 2024 qualifiers, despite their 3-1 defeat at the National Stadium. 

Well done to the Maltese team for their excellent performance on the pitch.
