Pro-Palestinian supporters took to the streets of New York City and Seattle on Saturday to mark the 48th anniversary of "Land Day" and protest the Gaza war.

Protesters waved Palestinian flags, wore keffiyehs, and chanted "Free Palestine" and "Gaza", calling for an immediate and permanent ceasefire. 

Land Day has been commemorated every March 30 since 1976, when six Palestinians were killed by Israeli forces during protests against the seizure of their land.
