Some 2,000 people, mostly supporters of the main Islamist party, protested in Tunis Friday against Israel's military offensive in Gaza, which has claimed more than 100 lives in four days. "The people want the liberation of Palestine," and "Forward Hamas, you fight for our ho**ur," were among the slogans shouted by demonstrators, who waved Tunisian and Palestinian flags. The green and white flag of Hamas, the Islamist movement that controls Gaza, was also visible. Some protesters shouted slogans against Egypt's President Abdel Fattah al-Sisi, whom Islamists have vilified for crushing the Muslim Brotherhood and taking a back seat as Israel pounds Hamas.
