Anti-Israel protesters arrested in Senate office building

Anti-Israel protesters chanting "Free Palestine" were arrested during a demonstration inside a U.S. Senate office building in Washington, D.C., on Tuesday.

The large group of protesters was captured on video inside the Philip A. Hart Senate Office Building as they shouted their demand for an end to the war in Gaza between Israel and Hamas.

Many of the protesters were seen wearing red T-shirts emblazoned with the words "STOP ARMING ISRAEL." 

Demonstrators were seen on multiple floors of the building, with some throwing sticky notes bearing that same phrase from the upper floor balconies into the atrium. Some were hanging banners that said, "time to act" and "fund Life not genocide."

It was unclear how many arrests police made related to the protest.

Hamas ignited the war in Gaza when its fighters stormed into Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, killing some 1,200 people, mostly civilians, and abducting around 250. Around 100 hostages are still inside Gaza, and at least a third of them are believed to be dead.
