Protesters call for immediate Gaza ceasefire outside Trudeau fundraiser

Demonstrators accused Justin Trudeau of supporting the "genocide" of Palestinians outside a fundraiser for the Canadian Prime Minister in Toronto on Friday.

Chanting "Justin Trudeau, what do you say? How many kids have you killed today,?" - the group of roughly sixty protesters waved Palestinian flag and called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

The demonstration came on the heels of Israel approving a potential assault on the Gaza city of Rafah.

Global allies and critics have urged Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu to hold off attacking Rafah, fearing mass civilian casualties. But Israel says it is one of the last strongholds of Hamas whom it has pledged to eliminate and that residents will be evacuated.
