Hundreds of demonstrators took to the streets of Washington, DC, calling on US authorities to enforce the International Criminal Court’s (ICC) arrest warrant against visiting Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.
Despite heavy rain and heightened security, protesters marched toward the White House, as seen in verified footage. The rally reflected growing international pressure surrounding the ICC’s move and the ongoing war in Gaza.
In a separate incident, a group of protesters entered the lobby of the Four Seasons Hotel in Georgetown, where Netanyahu was reportedly dining. Videos show demonstrators attempting to reach the restaurant area before being forcibly removed by security personnel.
Chants of “Bibi, Bibi, you can’t hide… you’re committing genocide” echoed through the venue, underscoring the intensity of public anger among participants.
The ICC issued arrest warrants in 2024 for Netanyahu and former Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant, citing allegations of war crimes and crimes against humanity linked to Israel’s military operations in Gaza.
