Dozens of Israeli and Jewish protesters gathered at Union Square Park in New York for a demonstration against Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, coinciding with his arrival to address the United Nations General Assembly. The organizers set up virtual ballot boxes ahead of Israel's elections, stating that the gathering is meant to send a message of change during Netanyahu's quick visit to the city. Among the speakers at the event was Eyal Eshel, father of observer Roni Eshel who was murdered at Nahal Oz. The protesters held a yellow sign reading 'Netanyahu, your time is up.' Simultaneously, pro-Palestinian protests were held outside the UN building and local police began making arrests.
