NEW YORK CITY – Hundreds of protesters calling for a “Free Palestine” rallied in front of the Israeli Mission to the United Nations in New York City’s Midtown Manhattan. The rally was organized to “Shut down Zionism to support the #PalestineStrike.” Organizers put out the call to protest “outside the Zionist Mission to the U.N.” located at 800 Second Avenue. The “Emergency Rally to Defend Palestine” began at 1 p.m. The Hamas-run Gaza Ministry of Health said 212 people had been killed and 1,400 others injured since violence erupted last week. It is the most serious Israeli-Palestinian confrontation in years. Sixty-one children and 36 women are among the dead, the ministry said.
