On Wednesday, pro-Palestinian activists from the far left attempted to obstruct roads leading to two major U.S. airports in an effort to oppose the United States’ support for Israel’s elimination of Hamas terrorists accountable for the October 7 killings of 1,200 Israelis.
In the days preceding Christmas, pro-Palestinian demonstrators disrupted events nationwide, including traffic to O’Hare International Airport in Chicago.
The most recent incidents of demonstrations follow those incidents.
Protesters blocked a route leading to John F. Kennedy International Airport on the Van Wyck Expressway in New York City late Wednesday morning.
Over twenty individuals were apprehended by Port Authority Police on charges of disruptive conduct and vehicular traffic obstruction.
Some individuals were forced to exit their vehicles and dash to the airport with their luggage in order to avoid missing their flights, as captured on camera footage of the incident.
