Mobilisation pro-Palestine contre l’arraisonnement de la Flotille Sumud, 2 octobre à Bruxelles

“On 2/10/25, the pro-Palestine demonstration moved from Place de la Bourse peacefully towards the European Parliament to reunite with the other leg of the protest in the Eu parliament. When walking close to Botanique, many police cars and policemen in riot gear blocked and attacked us.

They forced us to backtrack not only by closing the streets but by hitting us and spraying us with tear gas.

I personally got hit three times in the arms and on one leg, and I got sprayed with tear gas, despite the fact that not me nor the other participants to the demonstration where resisting the orders of the police officers or not cooperating.

Alongside cops in uniform, I noticed plainclothes cops (at least 3 or 4) participating in the violence as well as verbal insults and threats. The majority of the cops in uniform and plainclothes was wearing a turtleneck.

I wasn’t really thinking straight and I didn’t go to a doctor nor taken pictures of my bruises, despite the fact that I couldn’t really walk properly for a couple of days due to the hit taken on my knee. Now the bruises have healed.”
