18 Okt 2023 Jahr - 300+ Protestors Arrested for Demanding Ceasefire

Beschreibung:

Protesters rallied in Washington DC, calling on the Biden administration and Congress to press for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. About 200 demonstrators, many from the group Jewish Voice for Peace, filled the rotunda of the Cannon House office building on Capitol Hill and staged a sit-in, calling for an end to the bombing and to 'let Gaza live'. A number of arrests were made by US Capitol police, who handcuffed protesters and escorted them out of the building.
