The protest aimed to coincide with Biden’s interview and raise awareness about the need for a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas. Protestors, including celebrities like Schafer, wore shirts with messages for peace and held a banner that said, “Jews to Biden: stop arming genocide.”
Confirming the arrest, a spokesperson from the anti-Zionist organization said, “Hunter was arrested at the protest, along with 50 other people.”
“We commend her commitment to Palestinian freedom and to a future of justice for everyone,” the spokesperson added.
The conflict in Gaza, controlled by Hamas, began when Hamas attacked Israel on October 7, resulting in casualties and capturing hostages. In retaliation, Israel launched a military operation in Gaza, leading to significant casualties among Palestinians.
