The US capital, Washington, witnessed widespread demonstrations that lasted for hours, in protest against the visit of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. The protests involved human rights coalitions, medical organizations, and diverse religious and political groups, demanding the prosecution of the Israeli official on charges of committing war crimes in the Gaza Strip. The rallies coincided with official meetings at the White House and political funeral ceremonies, with protesters holding signs calling for a ceasefire, an end to military funding, and the immediate facilitation of humanitarian aid to those affected.
