The U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights has warned that "tens of thousands" will come to the Capitol to demand Netanyahu's arrest.
The U.S. Capitol Police is increasing security measures in Washington ahead of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s address to Congress on Wednesday afternoon, a spokesperson announced.
The plan includes “adding more officers—including from several outside agencies” and “ensuring that we have enough resources for our teams,” according to a Capitol Police statement cited by U.S. media.
“We anticipate a large number of demonstrators to show up. We respect everyone’s First Amendment rights, however all demonstrations must be done peacefully and legally,” the statement added, per Axios.
