Thousands of protesters against Israel's war in Gaza marched in New York City on Friday as Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited to address the U.N. General Assembly.
Protesters waved Palestinian flags, wore keffiyeh scarves and carried banners reading "Free Palestine," "stop starving Gaza" and "Arms embargo now," video showed.
They gathered in Times Square, across town from the United Nations building, before marching to the UN.
"Netanyahu you can't hide, we charge you with genocide," they chanted.
In his Friday UN address, Netanyahu denounced Western countries for embracing Palestinian statehood. Many delegates exited the hall when he took stage.
Images of starving Palestinians have sparked outrage against Israel's assault on Gaza, which has killed tens of thousands of people and internally displaced Gaza's entire population. Multiple rights experts say it amounts to genocide.
