In New York City, train service at Grand Central Terminal was temporarily suspended due to the chaos and vandalism caused by pro-Palestinian protesters who intended to "flood Manhattan for Gaza." A post by Within Our Lifetime and the City University of New York for Palestine read as follows:
Gaza Calls, We Respond: TOMORROW Friday 11/10. 59th St. Columbus Circle. 4 PM Teach-In. 5 PM Rally. Ceasefire. Cease genocide. Cease the siege. Cease the blockade. Cease occupation. Cease apartheid. Cease funding Israel. Cease settler colonization.🇵🇸🇵🇸🇵🇸 pic.twitter.com/7WspY3soYC

More than 1,000 people took part in the protest marching through the streets of Manhattan. According to Fox, "some were seen tearing down posters of hostages held by Hamas terrorists and shredding them while other protesters burned an Israeli flag."
