US EditionNetanyahu Visit Sparks New York City Protests
Protesters called for Netanyahu's arrest over alleged war crimes and demanded an end to US aid to Israel amid Gaza's humanitarian crisis, police said about 2,000 marched.
- From Times Square, demonstrators marched toward the U.N. after Netanyahu's speech on September 26, with about 2,000 participating, police said.
- Anger at Gaza's toll drove the turnout, as protesters targeted Netanyahu over Gaza Health Ministry figures showing more than 65,500 Palestinians killed and demanded an end to U.S. support for Israel, highlighting starving Palestinian children.
- March participants carried Palestinian flags, images of starving children, and an effigy of Netanyahu in handcuffs while chanting `Netanyahu you can't hide, we charge you with genocide` and closing parts of 42nd Street and Sixth Avenue.
- The walkout and protests highlighted Israel's mounting diplomatic isolation as dozens of ambassadors and UNGA delegates exited in protest over Netanyahu's ICC arrest warrant issued last year, which Zohran Mamdani pledged to enforce.
- Several Western states' recent recognition of Palestine frames the protests, as France, Canada and Britain have formally recognised a Palestinian state, a shift Netanyahu rejected in his UN address.
