Show notes

An historic march across the Sydney Harbour Bridge has become a powerful image of a nationwide protest movement in support of Palestinians in Gaza. More than 90,000 people braved rain storm conditions to walk the bridge and call for the Australian government to sanction Israel for their military actions in Gaza and the restriction of aid to the territory. Meanwhile, new aid efforts are hoping to turn the tide on sweeping starvation in Gaza.
