More Than 1,000 in Qatar March to Show Support for Murdered US Students

posted on: Feb 15, 2015

At least 1,000 people, including US Ambassador to Qatar Dana Shell Smith, gathered in Education City this afternoon to march in solidarity with three Muslim American students who were killed near a college campus in the US last week.

The walk, which was organized by Qatar Foundation, marked a rare moment of political activism in a country where protests and demonstrations are largely discouraged, if not prohibited.
