Pro-Palestinian demonstrators have disrupted major cities in the U.S., causing traffic chaos and calling for an immediate cease-fire in the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Demonstrations have taken place in Illinois, California, New York, and the Pacific Northwest, with protesters blocking highways and bridges.
In Chicago, San Francisco, Brooklyn, and Eugene, protesters have obstructed travel into airports and on major highways, causing delays and inconvenience for travelers. The demonstrations at the Golden Gate Bridge, Brooklyn Bridge, and Interstate 5 have led to arrests and traffic closures, while Chicago police have also made multiple arrests as protesters continue to obstruct traffic in the city.

In New York, police have arrested numerous protesters, leading to the closure of the Brooklyn Bridge for several hours.
The protesters are calling for an immediate cease-fire in the conflict, which has escalated in recent weeks with both sides suffering casualties.
