• Anti-Israel activists hold funeral event for terror chiefs Nasrallah and Sinwar, in NYC

Several dozen anti-Israel protesters hold a funeral event for Hezbollah terror leader Hassan Nasrallah in New York City

The protest takes place in Manhattan’s Washington Square Park on the same day as Nasrallah’s funeral in Lebanon

The protesters chant,
1. “From the river to the sea, Palestine is almost free”
2. “Settlers settlers go back home, Palestine is ours alone”
3. “From New York to Gaza, globalize the intifada”

Several people in the crowd hold photos of terror chiefs Nasrallah and Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar

A Hezbollah flag hangs at the head of the group

Please! Trump deport these terrorist supporters, inciting intifada

• pro-Israel counter-protesters

Several dozen pro-Israel counter-protesters blow air horns, wave Israeli and American flags and chant “USA”
“F--k Palestine” a passerby shouts

Unlike most anti-Israel rallies in the city, there appear to be more pro-Israel counter-protesters

Police separate the two groups
