"Mass Arrests as Pro-Palestinian Protesters Block NYC Bridges and Tunnel"

Pro-Palestinian protesters from various advocacy groups shut down multiple bridges and a tunnel in New York City during the Monday morning commute, leading to the arrest of hundreds of demonstrators. The protests were in response to the Israeli bombardment on Gaza, with demonstrators calling for a permanent ceasefire. The disruption caused significant traffic delays and frustration among commuters and resulted in a total of 216 arrests by the NYPD and 109 arrests by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.
