Protesters Arrested in Philadelphia and Syracuse Demanding Gaza Ceasefire
Protesters, including faith leaders and activists from Jewish Voice for Peace, The Philly Palestine Coalition, and IfNotNow, rallied at Philadelphia's 30th Street Station demanding a ceasefire in Gaza. Around 300 demonstrators gathered inside and outside the station, causing disruptions to train services. Some protesters blocked train entrances and were subsequently arrested by Amtrak and Philadelphia police. The organizers called it the largest interfaith gathering in Philadelphia for a ceasefire. Similar protests have taken place in other cities, including Washington, D.C., and New York.
