Mass protests held across US cities against Israeli genocide in Gaza

WORLD, July 06 (YPA) – Thousands of demonstrators took to the streets across major US cities on Saturday in widespread protests denouncing the genocidal war waged by the Israeli enemy army on the Gaza Strip

The protests were held under the banner “Pro-Palestine Protests Near You: Stop the Gaza Genocide.”

Protesters condemned the escalating Israeli attacks in Gaza, carried out with American weapons and taxpayer funding.

Many carried signs that read, “A child is killed every 40 minutes,” underscoring the high civilian toll, particularly among women and children.

The demonstrations spanned cities including San Francisco, Chicago, and New York City’s Manhattan borough, where organizers called for an immediate halt to US arms exports to “Israel” and a suspension of military aid, which activists say has been used in attacks on hospitals, refugee camps, and civilian neighborhoods.
