Hundreds of pro-Palestine protesters rallied in Paris on Saturday, December 9, to demonstrate against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s planned visit. Netanyahu is scheduled to meet with French President Emmanuel Macron on December 10.

Video footage taken from La Place de la République on Saturday afternoon shows Palestine protesters shouting “shame, shame” as they condemned US President Donald Trump’s controversial decision to formally recognize Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.

Netanyahu will reportedly be meeting with European Union foreign ministers in Brussels on Monday. Credit: Twitter/Merom Golan via Storyful
