28 December 2023 at 02:07 Palestine activists blocked access to major airports in the USA Dozens of pro-Palestinian activists have been arrested in the USA after they blocked road traffic to two of the country’s largest airports in Los Angeles and New York. 36 people were arrested at the international airport in Los Angeles, where protesters began to misbehave. – Demonstrators threw a police officer to the ground and used building materials, road signs, tree branches and cement blocks to block a road leading to the airport, “while attacking innocent passers-by in their cars”, says a statement from the police night to Thursday Norwegian time. Los Angeles airport police say the road was reopened within 45 minutes and no flights were affected. In New York, 26 people were arrested where Palestinian activists staged a similar demonstration at John F. Kennedy Airport. There, the road was cleared and reopened after around 20 minutes. (NTB)
