Pro-Palestinian Demonstrators Cause Traffic Chaos in NYC, Over 300 Arrested

Over 300 pro-Palestinian protesters were arrested by New York City police after blocking traffic at the entrances to the Holland Tunnel and three East River bridges during the Monday morning commute. The protests, part of a 'Shut it Down for Palestine' demonstration, resulted in the temporary closure of the Holland Tunnel and the three bridges, but they have since reopened. About 120 arrests were made at the Holland Tunnel, with additional protests occurring at the Brooklyn Bridge, Williamsburg Bridge, and Manhattan Bridge.
