Global Protests Demand Gaza Ceasefire: Hundreds Arrested in NYC and Worldwide

Over 400 people, including rabbis, actors, and elected officials, were arrested during a Jewish-led sit-in protest at New York City's Grand Central Station, demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. The protesters, organized by Jewish Voice for Peace, wore shirts saying "Not in Our Name" and "Ceasefire Now" and unfurled banners calling for freedom for Palestinians and an end to the violence. The demonstration, believed to be the largest sit-in protest in New York in over two decades, aimed to show solidarity with the people of Gaza and to urge the US government to take action for a ceasefire.
