Thousands of pro-Palestinian supporters held a mass demonstration on Saturday in front of the United States embassy on Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan, Central Jakarta, condemning Israeli atrocities in the Rafah refugee camp.

The protest, themed "A Billion Curses for Zionist Israel," was organized to show sympathy and support for the Palestinian people, particularly following an Israeli airstrike on May 26 in Rafah that killed at least 45 Palestinians, including many women and children. 

The protesters in Jakarta chanted anti-Zionist and anti-US slogans. 

Several religious leaders, celebrities, and politicians delivered speeches.
