Protesters calling for Gaza ceasefire block roads, intersection near LAX during Friday rush hour
Protesters near Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) caused partial traffic blockages during Friday’s rush hour to draw attention to the Israel-Hamas conflict. The group, consisting of Palestinians, Jews, and other Angelenos, are calling for a ceasefire in Gaza and aim to disrupt “business as usual for the systems facilitating the current war and the long-running occupation”. They marched on roads near LAX, including over a 96th Street overpass, and paused in the middle of intersections, causing traffic backups. They were active for several hours on Friday afternoon.
