Thousands of demonstrators marched through Manhattan, New York City on Saturday in a massive anti‑war rally, with protesters voicing opposition to escalating conflict and demanding an end to U.S. military action in the Middle East.
In the afternoon near Central Park, crowds gathered holding placards and chanting against the widening conflict. Demonstrators condemned U.S. military strikes on Iran and demanded an immediate halt to war operations.
"Stop the war," demonstrators chanted as they assembled in Midtown Manhattan, one of several focal points of the protest.
According to U.S. media reports, more than 3,000 related demonstrations took place across the country on the same day, with New York City serving as one of the main gathering cities for the coordinated anti-war movement.
"Ceasefire now, no more endless wars, why are we attacking countries in the Middle East? And we are a nation that has been at war long enough. It is time for peace," said a protester.
"No more extra wars, no war on Cuba," said another protester.
In addition to opposing war, protesters also voiced anger over domestic concerns such as U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
"I don't like what's going on in this country, I don't think anybody does. Well, that among many, many other things, not just the war, but there's a lot of things like healthcare, arresting citizens that aren't criminals, and the list goes on and on. There's a lot of grievances," said a protester.
The demonstrations came in the wake of joint U.S.–Israeli strikes on Tehran and several other Iranian cities on Feb. 28. The attacks killed Iran's former Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei along with senior military commanders and hundreds of civilians.
