Protesters across Europe Thursday railed at Israel's interception of a flotilla carrying aid for Gaza's besieged Palestinians, urging greater sanctions from European governments in response.
Some 15,000 people marched through Barcelona in protest at Israel's actions, according to the municipal police force in Spain's second city, chanting slogans including "Gaza, you are not alone", "Boycott Israel" and "Freedom for Palestine".
Colau and her fellow activists, including Nelson Mandela's grandson Mandla Mandela, face deportation by Israel.
One protester, 76-year-old Gianfranco Pagliarulo, told AFP that Meloni had not done enough to deter Israel.
Dozens also rallied in Malaysia's capital, Kuala Lumpur, in front of the embassy of the United States, Israel's key ally.
