Some demonstrators also criticised MR party leader Georges-Louis Bouchez for opposing potential sanctions against Israel by Belgium.

As the situation unfolds, many are asking what effective actions Belgium can take to contribute to peace in the region. The protest underscores the urgency felt by citizens demanding stronger government intervention and solidarity with affected populations.
