During a Sacramento City Council debate on Tuesday night about a resolution for a ceasefire in Gaza, a dozen people were arrested following outbursts. The resolution, proposed by Sacramento Mayor Darrell Steinberg, called for an immediate and permanent ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. The mayor had to clear the City Council chambers due to the disruptions. The council ultimately adopted the resolution, with Mayor Steinberg thanking leaders from the Muslim, Palestinian-American, and Jewish communities for their contributions to the compromise.
