Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's visit to Washington has sparked a series of protests in the nation's capital. Demonstrators have gathered to express both condemnation and support for Israel, urging Netanyahu to negotiate a cease-fire deal and secure the release of hostages held by Hamas.
Upon his arrival on Monday, Netanyahu's presence prompted rallies outside his hotel and a flashmob-style protest at the Cannon Building, where protesters from Jewish Voice for Peace staged a sit-in. The demonstrators, wearing red shirts with the message 'Not In Our Name,' chanted 'Let Gaza Live!' and called for an end to violence.
