400 U.S. Jews, including 25 Rabbis and Allies, Protest Inside U.S. Capitol Demanding Ceasefire

Around 400 U.S. Jews, including 25 rabbis and allies, protested inside the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday, demanding that U.S. lawmakers call for a ceasefire in the ongoing conflict between Israel and Hamas. The protesters gathered in the Capitol Rotunda, where they sang songs, chanted slogans, and held signs calling for an end to the violence. They also met with members of Congress and their staff to discuss their concerns. The protest was organized by the Jewish Voice for Peace, a progressive Jewish organization that works for peace and justice in the Middle East.
