About
Global demonstrations in response to the Middle East crisis offer a detailed look at how regional conflict triggers worldwide civil unrest. Since the 7 October 2023 Hamas attack and the subsequent responses across the region, waves of protests have spread through the Middle East, North Africa, Western Europe, and the United States. These records capture the shift in demonstration activity as humanitarian conditions evolved and violence extended into Lebanon. By tracking these events, the collection highlights significant spikes in activity, such as the October 2024 surge coinciding with the war's anniversary and the expansion of strikes into northern territories.
