Dozens of people sat blindfolded with their hands tied behind their backs on the ground across from the United Nations.
NEW YORK - The conflict in the Middle East is continuing to spark protests in the Tri-State Area, including one earlier Tuesday morning. Their goal? To send a message to top officials across the globe, including United Nations Secretary-General Antonio Guterres, to bring home those held captive by Hamas. 'We need to keep it fresh in people's minds,' Avitel Shimshowitz said. 'We want to see movement. We want to see efforts to get our hostages out,' Yaala Ballim said.
' 'I want to believe the people sitting in this building are taking it seriously, as if it was their own families,' Omer Lubaton-Granot said. Tuesday marks a month since the Oct. 7 Hamas attacks, and ever since then there have been continued demonstrations throughout the area, with Stars of David waving overhead. Thousands of people filled Central Park West Monday night in solidarity with Israel. Many of the protestors were carrying posters of those kidnapped.
