\"NYC<\/a><\/p>\n

Islam Times – Police in New York City detained dozens of protesters demonstrating against US arms sales to the “Israeli” occupation and calling for an end to Washington\u2019s military support for “Tel Aviv” amid its war against Iran.Some 90 demonstrators, including whistle-blower Chelsea Manning, a former US Army soldier and WikiLeaks source, were arrested on Monday, said anti-war group Jewish Voice for Peace, which was one of the groups that participated in the protest rally in New York City.<\/p>\n

The New York City Police Department, however, said \u201cmultiple\u201d arrests were made and refused to provide an exact figure of those detained.<\/p>\n

Footage showed protesters gathering near the offices of Senators Chuck Schumer and Kirsten Gillibrand in New York as the Senate moves to curb presidential war powers over the war against Iran.<\/p>\n

Protesters chanted slogans such as \u201cstop the bombs\u201d, \u201cend the killings\u201d, and \u201cfree Palestine\u201d, expressing opposition to US-“Israeli” strikes on Iran and ongoing attacks in Gaza and South Lebanon, while also chanting \u201clet Gaza live\u201d, \u201clet Iran live\u201d, and \u201clet Lebanon live.\u201d<\/p>\n

The US and “Israel” launched a large-scale war against Iran, triggering regional escalation, with Tehran responding through missile and drone strikes on US and “Israeli” targets under \u201cOperation True Promise 4.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the war has reportedly imposed heavy costs on Washington, alongside a fragile ceasefire following Pakistan-mediated talks and rising tensions after the US imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports, which Iran has vowed to counter.<\/p>\n

The Trump administration has cracked down on anti-war and anti-“Israel” protests by targeting foreign students, threatening university funding, and screening immigrants\u2019 online activity, though the measures have faced judicial obstacles.<\/p>\n

New York City was at the heart of pro-Palestinian protests in 2024, when “Israel” waged its genocidal war against Palestinians in Gaza. The US-backed war killed over 75,000 people, triggered a hunger crisis and internally displaced Gaza\u2019s entire population.<\/p>\n
