Jews attacked in New York City amid pro-Palestinian protest
One person is burned when two fireworks were thrown from a car amid an altercation with anti-Zionist protesters in a heavily Jewish New York City business district, according to police.
The fights came on Thursday evening, on what appeared to be the final day of the conflict between Hamas and Israel, before a ceasefire that took effect overnight.
Additional videos circulating on social media appear to show other physical altercations between pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian demonstrators in New York City Thursday.
