Reports have emerged that multiple individuals were arrested in New York as they marched towards the Met Gala, demanding an end to the ongoing conflict in Gaza and advocating for Palestinian freedom. Photos captured outside the star-studded event at the Metropolitan Museum of Art showed police struggling with one protester, while others gathered with signs and flags representing Palestine.
According to The New York Times, barricades were set up by the police outside the Gala, and arrests were made a block away on Madison Avenue, which sparked complaints from the protesters. Chants in support of Palestine could be heard from various groups throughout the area. The Independent confirmed that the New York Police Department acknowledged the arrests but declined to provide further information.
These demonstrations are just the latest in a wave of anti-war protests taking place across the United States, with many centered around college campuses. At several universities, clashes have occurred between protesters, law enforcement, and counter-protesters. The main demand of these activists is for universities to sever ties with companies that are profiting from the current invasion of Gaza.
Amidst the ongoing turmoil, some studies have shown that a Mediterranean diet may lower the risk of death from dementia. This is just one of the many developments that have been overshadowed by the ongoing conflict and its impact on the global community.
The current violence in Gaza was sparked by a terrorist attack carried out by Hamas last year, which resulted in the deaths of 1200 Israelis and the kidnapping of hundreds. Since then, more than 34,000 lives have been lost due to Israeli attacks. This has sparked outrage and activism, with individuals and organizations around the world demanding an end to the violence and bloodshed.
