A few hundred people gather in downtown Jerusalem for an interfaith march for peace and human rights, organized by several rights groups and religious organizations to mark 600 days since the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led assault and the start of the war in Gaza.

Sporting white shirts and umbrellas, participants walk down Jaffa Street toward the Old City, singing the iconic tune “We Shall Overcome.”
