"Pro-Palestinian Protests Disrupt Traffic in Major US Cities"
Pro-Palestinian demonstrators in major cities across the U.S. shut down airport highways and bridges, causing travel disruptions and leading to arrests. The protests were part of a global "economic blockade to free Palestine" and called for an immediate cease-fire in the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Demonstrators in Illinois, California, New York, and the Pacific Northwest disrupted traffic at airports, on bridges, and on a major highway, leading to arrests and temporary closures.
