Thousands of anti-Israel protesters gathered outside the White House, expressing outrage over President Biden’s support of Israel and its conduct in Gaza. The demonstrators argued that Israel had crossed a “red line” of “genocide” and demanded an arms embargo. Meanwhile, Israel conducted a successful hostage rescue mission, saving the lives of four Israeli citizens captured during Hamas’ October 7 attack. Despite the successful operation, the protesters remained defiant, chanting slogans against Zionism and calling for Israel to be wiped off the map.
