Hundreds of Jewish activists, allies arrested at New York anti-Israel protest

Police say they arrested more than 200 pro-Palestinian demonstrators who staged a sit-in outside the New York Stock Exchange to demand an end to US support for Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza.

The protesters, many of them from activist groups such as Jewish Voice for Peace, chanted “let Gaza live” and “stop funding genocide” in front of the exchange’s iconic building near Wall Street, in lower Manhattan.

None of the protesters got inside the stock exchange but dozens crossed a police security fence set up outside its main building on Broad Street.

A police spokesperson says 206 arrests were made, without providing details. Jewish groups involved with the protests say around 500 demonstrators attended. The stock exchange has no immediate comment.

The protesters directed anger at American defense contractors and weapons manufacturers. Others chanted slogans against Israeli attacks in Lebanon, where Israel says it is waging war against Iran-backed Hezbollah militants.

“(Hundreds) of Jews and friends are shutting down the New York Stock Exchange to demand the U.S. stop arming Israel and profiting from genocide,” Jewish Voice for Peace says on X. Israel denies genocide allegations at the World Court, and says its military operations in Gaza targets Hamas terrorists.

There were also a much smaller number of pro-Israel counter-protesters at the site carrying Israeli flags.
