Anti-Israel protests erupts outside Democratic HQ in Washington
Videos from the event show protesters clashing with police, with some being led away in handcuffs and others being dragged from the scene. An attendee claimed that the police were "shoving" people down the stairs during the confrontation. The protest, which began as a candlelit vigil organized by Jewish Voice for Peace and If Not Now, intended to lay out 11,000 candles to represent the death toll in Gaza. However, it soon spiraled out of control, forcing police to establish a perimeter around the protest.
