A pro-Palestinian march took to the streets of Saratoga Springs on Wednesday.

Dozens of supporters held signs they made saying “Cease Fire Now” and “Free Palestine.”

The demonstration lasted for about two hours.

Organizers of the event said they are happy with the turnout but not surprised.

“We have a lot of people who demand and believe in a free Palestine, but it just makes me feel really good that we have the support and people actually are joining the resistance and the revolution for Palestine,” said Samira Sangare, of Saratoga Black Lives Matter.
