Pro-Palestinian activists, including members from CODEPINK, have disrupted several events in New York City, targeting discussions related to Israel's policies and U.S. support for the country. During a meeting with Senator Gillibrand, activists questioned her acceptance of $366,000 from pro-Israel lobbies, accusing her of being influenced by foreign governments. In a separate incident, activists interrupted a Senate hearing on 'Global Threats' attended by directors of National Security, the FBI, and the CIA, with demands to stop arming Israel and accusations of Israel being a significant threat to national security. These protests aimed to highlight what the activists describe as Israel's disregard for international law and its actions in Gaza, with shouts of "STOP KILLING MY PEOPLE IN GAZA!" and references to "Israel's genocide in Gaza." Several activists were arrested during these demonstrations.
