An anti-Israel demonstrator chanting “Liberate Palestine” was arrested during a demonstration inside the U.S. Senate Building in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday.
Loud protesters were captured on video inside the Philip A. Hart Senate Building demanding an end to the war between Israel and Hamas in Gaza.
Many of the demonstrators were seen wearing red T-shirts that read “Stop Arming Israel.”
Demonstrators were seen on multiple floors of the building, with some throwing sticky notes with the same phrase from upper-floor balconies into the atrium. Some held banners reading “Time for action'' and “Funding life, not genocide.''
