Jewish pro-Palestine demonstrators occupied the Cannon House Office Building on Capitol Hill in Washington on Tuesday, calling for an end to arms sales and a ceasefire in Gaza. The protest comes a day before the Israeli prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is due to address a joint session of Congress. Police were seen arresting the protesters and pulling them out of the rotunda of the building. In a statement published on Instagram, the Jewish Voice for Peace group said: 'One day before Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu addresses a joint session of Congress, and days before his meeting with President Biden, we're here to demand an arms embargo NOW'
