On Rio de Janeiro’s Copacabana Beach, the non-profit organization Rio de Paz held an exhibition on Tuesday to honor those who died in the Oct. 7 Hamas massacre, the news channel reported. i24 News news
The initiative involved placing 1,400 Israeli flags in the sand, symbolizing each of the victims of the first day of the attack.
There were also 34 photographs of children and teenagers taken hostage during the fighting.
The demonstration follows a similar event last week when the Rio da Paz organization tried to draw attention to the deaths of thousands of children in the Gaza Strip. The group covered the beaches of Brazil with dozens of white sheets stained with fake blood.
Each sheet contained the names and ages of some of the young victims of the conflict.
