People in the blockaded Gaza Strip protested following the Friday prayer against France over the publication of the offensive cartoons of Prophet Mohammad.
The event was part of the Day of Rage rallies in Palestine against France and the French president.
Protesters slammed French President Emmanuel Macron for his support of secular laws that allow blasphemous cartoons to be published under the pretext of freedom of speech.
People also vowed to sacrifice their lives for the sake of their Prophet.
Hamas has vehemently condemned the support of French officials for the derogatory cartoons of the Prophet Mohammad.
Protests have been held across the Muslim world to condemn Emmanuel Macron's anti-Islam remarks and the blasphemous cartoons.
Several Muslims countries have also boycotted French products.
Some protesters in Gaza believe that the recent normalization deals between the Israeli regime and some Arab countries especially in the Persian Gulf region have encouraged anti Islam sentiments in western countries.
Observers say that Macron’s anti-Islam remarks will only endanger peace and stability around the world.
People here believe that attempts to defame Islam are bound to fail and that the Muslim world will undoubtedly overcome such attacks.
