On Wednesday, October 28, activists from the Antwerp for Palestine association visited the Catholic school KNMC Merksem in Antwerp. Invited by a teacher, they conducted a one-hour session focused on "Palestine." The association shared photos on social media showing speakers in keffiyehs with students in front of a Palestinian flag, thanking the school and teacher for the "open and respectful" exchange. However, some parents were reportedly deeply shocked by the content of the intervention, with some students filming the event. Ralph Pais, vice-president of StopAntisemitisme.be, criticized the session, noting the presentation of a map omitting Israel and a discourse that allegedly justified terrorism as "resistance." Pais described the event as "indoctrination" and "unacceptable," especially within a Catholic school. He has sent a letter to the Flemish Minister of Education seeking explanations and intervention regarding the circumstances of the activists' visit.
