An anti-Israel protester in New York City was seen holding a sign supporting the Hezbollah terror group during a rally as world leaders convened at the United Nations General Assembly in Manhattan.
In footage captured by FNTV, a masked and hooded protester holds a sign in one hand that reads: “New York for Hezbollah” with two red hearts drawn next to the words. In his other hand, he waved a Hezbollah flag.
“From Palestine to Lebanon, mobilize the intifada,” dozens of protesters can be heard chanting at the rally.
Other signs and banners read: “Hands off Lebanon,” “No Votes for Genocide,” and “Free Palestine.”
Israel has now conducted five targeted airstrikes in Lebanon’s capital of Beirut since the start of the Israel-Hamas War. Three of those targeted airstrikes have come in the last week.
The Israeli strikes targeted Hezbollah cells and weapons caches. Lebanese officials say the attacks killed at least 560 people.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu recently delivered a message to the people of Lebanon, saying Hezbollah is using them as “human shields,” and urging them to get out of harm’s way.
Netanyahu is set to address the United Nations General Assembly on Friday.
Meanwhile, the U.S. announced an additional deployment of American troops to the Middle East on Monday. The U.S. already had 40,000 troops in the region.
