The Palestinian community in Chile is set to hold a significant commemoration titled “One Year of Genocide, 76 Years of Suffering,” which will take place in the prestigious Hall of Honor of the National Congress.

This event aims to honor the memories of those affected by ongoing violence and displacement while highlighting the enduring struggles faced by Palestinians over the decades.

Members of both chambers of Congress are expected to participate, reflecting the importance of this gathering and the solidarity felt within the Chilean political landscape towards the Palestinian cause.

With a rich history of immigration and cultural exchange, Chile boasts the largest Palestinian diaspora outside the Middle East, making this event not only a moment of remembrance but also a powerful demonstration of the community’s resilience and ongoing commitment to raising awareness about their plight.
