A protest demanding an Israeli cease-fire shut down the California Assembly.

California lawmakers shut down the Assembly on Wednesday, calling for Israel to stop its war against Hamas. At least 250 demonstrators chanted "Cease fire now" and unfurled a banner stating, "No U.S. funding for Israel's genocide in Palestine." They also made paper flowers representing over 22,000 Palestinians killed in the war.
