100,000 Anti-Israel Protesters Disrupt Chicago as DNC Begins
Aug 19, 2024, 06:00 AM
The Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chicago is being met with significant protests, as roughly 100,000 demonstrators, including anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian activists, gather in the city. The protests, which began ahead of the convention's official start, have already disrupted events, including a delegates' welcome party at Navy Pier. Security concerns are heightened as Chicago police prepare for potential escalations. The convention, running from August 19-22, will see Kamala Harris accept the party's nomination for president, following Joe Biden's withdrawal. Harris is expected to join Biden on stage for a speech scheduled at 9:45 PM local time. The protests aim to steal the spotlight from the DNC and the Harris-Walz ticket.
