Last August 15, an anonymous group of french mountaineers hoisted a giant Palestinian flag on the western face of Les Drus in the Mont Blanc massif, \u201ca symbolic gesture to denounce the genocide in Gaza and the inaction of Western governments.\u201d As with the 100 Summits for Gaza operation in 2024, the mountain here becomes a political and humanist megaphone.<\/strong><\/h2>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.22.1″ custom_margin=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”0px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”1px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.22.1″ max_width=”800px” custom_padding=”||6px|||” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ text_font_size=”18px” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

\u00abO<\/span>n Saturday, August 16, and Sunday, August 17, we hung a giant Palestinian flag on an iconic rock face in Chamonix to draw attention to the ongoing genocide in Gaza and the inaction of Western governments in the face of the crimes committed by Benjamin Netanyahu’s government,” announced an anonymous group of mountaineers. The flag was then removed from the western face of Les Drus, in the Mont Blanc massif, by the High Mountain Police Squad (PGHM), dispatched expressly by the Prefecture. The PGHM had \u201corders to remove it in the early hours of the day,\u201d according to our source, which was not done until midday yesterday, Sunday.<\/p>\n

This political action reminds us of another, dating back to 2024: 100 summits for Gaza. “Palestinian flags were hoisted on the summits, from Vercors to Grande Lauzi\u00e8re, from Ubaye to Monts d’Arr\u00e9e, in Finist\u00e8re. Five months after the start of the conflict between Israel and Hamas, as bombs continue to fall on Gaza, \u201c100 summits for Gaza\u201d is a way of supporting the people of Gaza and calling for a ceasefire. Hoisting a flag as a gesture of \u201csolidarity\u201d\u2014and, needless to say, apolitical and \u2018pacifist\u2019\u2014doesn’t cost anything, does it?” we wrote at the time.<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.24.2″ width_tablet=”” width_phone=”” width_last_edited=”on|phone” max_width=”600px” max_width_tablet=”” max_width_phone=”300px” max_width_last_edited=”on|phone” use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_divider color=”#000000″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ min_height=”1px” custom_margin=”||-10px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”||-10px||false|false” custom_margin_phone=”||-10px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”||0px|||” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_divider][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ text_font=”||||||||” text_font_size=”18px” link_font=”||||||||” link_text_color=”#edb72f” custom_padding=”0px|||||” hover_enabled=”0″ saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

In mid-August 2025, politics and the mountain community are once again joining forces: \u201cWe, as mountaineers, refuse to allow the world of sport and outdoor activities to remain silent in the face of genocide. Sport has always been a political lever, and using this means of expression to convey a humanist message seemed obvious to us,\u201d continue the mountaineers with the flag.<\/p>\n

\u201cInitially planned to be hung for three days, the authorities deployed significant resources to try to remove it by helicopter from this steep and difficult-to-access face. The disproportionate mobilization of the gendarmerie to remove this flag […] raises questions for us: has a symbol of hope for an oppressed people become an offense?\u201d<\/p>\n[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_3,1_3″ _builder_version=”4.24.2″ max_width=”1200px” hover_enabled=”0″ use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”800px” global_colors_info=”{}” use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”2″ sticky_enabled=”0″][et_pb_column type=”2_3″ _builder_version=”4.16″ custom_padding=”|||” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_padding__hover=”|||”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/alpinemag.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/drus_gaza_OK-4.jpg” title_text=”drus_gaza_OK-4″ show_in_lightbox=”on” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.24.2″ width=”100%” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.24.2″ text_font=”Merriweather|900|||||||” text_font_size=”16″ custom_margin=”||||false|false” hover_enabled=”0″ border_style=”solid” saved_tabs=”all” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

At the beginning of the war, we wrote: “I can already hear those who will say, what are those flags doing on top of the mountains, leave them alone. […] I would respond that for ages, mountains have been megaphones, symbols through which we can communicate\u2014including love and freedom, like these hearts of light and hope in the midst of Covid. The mountain is not a Truman Show where Jim Carreys flourish. […] These pieces of fabric that flew on the peaks for the duration of a photo are not an appropriation, just a reminder that everyone, in France and elsewhere, cannot look away.
