🇮🇱 Israeli National Security Minister Loses Temper After Confrontation With Protesters in US Congress

🔥 Protest Erupts During Minister’s Capitol Visit

Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir lost his temper after being confronted by pro-Palestinian protesters during a visit to the US Congress in Washington, DC.

According to Turkey’s Anadolu News Agency, protesters interrupted Ben-Gvir’s appearance on Monday, calling him a “war criminal” and chanting for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.

🕌 Muslim Advocacy Day Sparks Demonstrations

The protest occurred during the 10th Annual National Muslim Advocacy Day, hosted by the American Council of Muslim Organizations. Muslims gathered on Capitol Hill, urging US lawmakers to stop what they described as the “genocide in Gaza.”

📹 Tense Moment Captured on Camera

Videos shared online show Ben-Gvir shouting at protesters. At one point, he appears to push his security guards forward, urging them to intervene aggressively before entering a Congress member’s office.

This visit marked Ben-Gvir’s first official trip to the United States to meet with lawmakers.

📍 Backlash Continues Across the US

Ben-Gvir, known for his far-right positions, faced additional protests last week in Manhattan, New York City, where demonstrators also opposed his stance on Gaza.

He made headlines again on Wednesday by claiming that US Republicans support his call to bomb food and aid delivery sites in war-torn Gaza—a statement that has sparked international outrage.
