Under the banner of “Bring Them Home Now!”, approximately 1,000 participants gathered for a solidarity rally in Vienna, shining a spotlight on the Israeli hostages taken by Hamas to the Gaza strip and the egregious human rights violations they endure.
Participants clamored for the immediate release of all 133 individuals held captive under the banner “Walkathon – Bring Them Home Now!”
Organised by “Bring Them Home Now,” a diverse coalition comprising 25 Jewish and non-Jewish entities and individuals, the event saw around 1,000 participants, including notable figures, peacefully and emphatically drawing attention to the plight of the hostages and the rampant human rights abuses.
The “Walkathon” started at Vienna’s Judenplatz, winding its way through the city, traversing landmarks such as Kohlmarkt, Michaelerplatz, Habsburgergasse, and Graben, culminating in a final rally at Stock-im-Eisen-Platz near St. Stephen’s Cathedral.
