Replica car displayed at Gaza solidarity actions in Leeuwarden and Zwolle

A replica of the car in which five-year-old Palestinian Hind Rajab died in Gaza City was displayed at a Gaza solidarity action on Zaailand square in Leeuwarden on Saturday and in central Zwolle on Sunday. The vehicle was presented as bearing imitation bullet holes to draw attention to suffering in Gaza.

The reports gave different counts for the holes: one described 360, while the other reported 335. A single report said an earlier plan to display the car on 7 October had been cancelled after political opposition.
