US police detained over 300 activists who staged a protest at Grand Central Station in New York City, advocating for a Gaza ceasefire, as reported by the Jewish Voice for Peace organization.

A large gathering of people, voicing their call for a Gaza ceasefire, convened at Grand Central Station in New York on Friday, according to the New York Metropolitan Transportation Authority.

The group behind the demonstration, along with the participation of New York politicians and lawmakers, emphasized their stance against any association with genocide, chanting slogans such as "Ceasefire now."

In New York City's Grand Central Station, thousands assembled, united in their plea for a Gaza ceasefire.

It's worth noting that the same organization had conducted a sit-in within the halls of Congress just last week.
