Nigeria Quds Day Protest: Pro-Palestinian Protesters vs Police in Abuja - Dozens Killed, Open Fire

In a violent crackdown during International Quds Day, Nigerian security forces opened fire on pro-Palestinian protesters in Abuja, killing at least 19 people and injuring dozens more. Video footage from the scene shows armed forces securing the perimeter as demonstrators flee, with some being dragged lifeless into trucks by soldiers. This violent suppression follows a pattern of force used against Quds Day demonstrators in previous years, sparking outrage and concern from human rights organizations. The Nigerian government had previously warned of potential unrest, citing concerns over the protesters' demands for justice in support of Palestine. This tragic event has left many questioning the Nigerian government's response to peaceful demonstrations and the growing tension surrounding global solidarity for Palestine. #Nigeria #QudsDay #PalestinianProtest #AbujaProtests #HumanRights #ProPalestine #InternationalQudsDay #PoliceBrutality #PeacefulProtest #ProtestViolence #NigeriaCrackdown #PalestinianSolidarity ~PR.274~ED.102~HT.410~GR.125~
