Pro-Palestinian protests have erupted in multiple locations, including New York City, Montreal, and Los Angeles. In New York City, protesters disrupted subway services near the Nova exhibit and threatened passengers at Union Square, asking them to identify as Zionists. In Montreal, activists occupied a room in McGill University’s administration building, citing the university's failure to meet the demands of a Gaza solidarity encampment. Meanwhile, at California State University, Los Angeles (Cal State LA), protesters have taken over the student services building for 8 hours, trapping the university president and other employees inside. The activists have vandalized the building and set up barricades, prompting a shelter-in-place order. Notably, 16% of NYC’s population is Jewish.
