Around 200 activists in Tel Aviv join fellow campaigners in more than 170 cities worldwide countries to press for animal rights.

Holding pictures of animals exploited for meat and of stray dogs destined to be put down, they move around to form a shape filmed by a drone of a fish on a plate that transforms into a fish swimming freely in the sea.

Their slogan is “Our planet is theirs too.”

A statement issued by several organizations taking part notes that over 300 million creatures are killed annually in Israel for the food industry.
