A woman holds a Ukrainian flag and covers herself with it during a rally in support of people in Iran and Ukraine. People in Halifax rallied at Peace and Friendship Park Saturday to show support for the people of Ukraine and Iran. Hundreds of supporters held signs and called for action, across the street from defense leaders discussing pressing global security concerns at the Halifax International Security Forum. Organizer Reza Rahimi said he wanted those leaders to hear their voices, especially because so many people living in those countries can�t speak to the media. Demonstrators said they wanted to be the voices of those who have had their voices suppressed. Multiple officials from the Halifax International Security Forum left meetings to attend the rally, with some speaking at the event, including federal defense minister Anita Anand.
