- Dutch-Israeli relations have been strained by sanctions.

## Summary

More than 200,000 people joined a march in Amsterdam on Sunday, calling on the Dutch government to halt arms sales to Israel and impose tougher trade sanctions over its actions in Gaza. Organisers also urged the Netherlands to recognise those actions as genocide and condemned Israeli apartheid in the occupied West Bank.

Many marchers wore red for the Red Line protest, which Amnesty International’s Dutch branch helped organise. Palestinian medical authorities report 74,643 people killed and 175,962 wounded in Gaza; around 22,000 of those killed are children, and thousands remain missing. The march comes amid strained Dutch-Israeli relations: the coalition banned imports from illegal Israeli settlements in September, while Prime Minister Rob Jetten, who attended last year’s march, did not join Sunday’s protest.
