NY police detain protesters over Netanyahu visit
Coverage of the arrests carried out by New York City police against dozens of protesters outside the United Nations headquarters during their demonstration against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit, which took place as part of the United Nations General Assembly meetings. The protesters, members of the "Jewish Voice for Peace" movement, expressed their rejection of the war on Gaza and protested Netanyahu’s visit by blocking roads, chanting against the bombing and killings, and holding signs criticizing Israeli policies, describing him as "wanted for genocide." Sources estimate that around 100 people were detained during the demonstration, which coincided with a brief visit limited to six hours for him to deliver a speech, with expectations of no high-level meetings taking place during that time.
