Pro-Palestinian protesters shut down the Golden Gate Bridge and I-880 in Oakland as part of a worldwide economic blockade in solidarity with Gaza, leading to arrests and traffic disruptions. The protests are part of A15, calling for an arms embargo and an end to US taxpayer funding for Israel. This follows previous protests during the APEC Summit in November 2023, and similar demonstrations in 56 cities worldwide.
