Quick Glance: Wave of Pro-Palestinian Protests Blocks Bridges in the U.S.

Pro-Palestinian demonstrators blocked roads, highways, and bridges across the country on Monday, causing traffic disruptions and arrests. Some activists viewed this as a coordinated day of economic protest against the Israel-Gaza war.

The protests spanned the nation from San Francisco to New York, where demonstrators blocked traffic and held rallies. Similar actions were reported in Philadelphia, Chicago, Miami, and San Antonio.

The demonstrations began in the morning in various cities and had been dispersed by Monday evening by authorities. There were dozens of arrests, but no significant violence was reported.

Protesters called for an end to arms exports to the region and criticized the humanitarian situation in besieged Gaza, highlighting the disproportionate impact on women and children. The U.S. has been a major supporter of Israel since World War II.
