Since October 7, 2024, a Japanese chef named Chikahiro Naoya has been protesting alone in front of the Israeli embassy in Tokyo every week, shouting “Stop the genocide and liberate Palestine” and demanding an end to Israel’s actions in Gaza.
These protests, which began in February 2024, have become a weekly ritual for this man, who closes his ramen restaurant one day a week to get his message out to the world.
Naoya continues to courageously protest despite resistance from local authorities and police efforts to silence her.
He has attracted a lot of attention by holding placards calling for an end to the genocide in Gaza.
Social media users, including on X, have praised Naoya’s courage and considered her a symbol of solidarity with the Palestinian people.
Some have written that this one person’s zeal is greater than that of all Arab rulers, a reference to the lack of similar reactions from some regional leaders.
