In New York, police arrested dozens of activists as over 200 Palestinian and Jewish New Yorkers led the occupation of the Maersk office building in Manhattan, demanding the shipping company halt the transportation of F-35 fighter jet parts to Israel. This is Naye from the Palestinian Youth Movement.

Naye: “These fighter jets are responsible for dropping bombs on the people of Gaza, for destroying schools, hospitals, universities and the entire infrastructure of Gaza.”
