Compiled from 2 independent publishers The New York Times · Al Jazeera
The New York Times describes large groups in Midtown Manhattan demonstrating as Netanyahu spoke, while Al Jazeera places the arrests outside the U.N. ahead of the speech and identifies Susan Sarandon and Hannah Einbinder among those arrested.
Bottom line
The two reports establish a large arrest operation linked to Netanyahu’s U.N. appearance, but the absence of charges or police details prevents an assessment of its legal or operational significance.
