VIDEOKINGS — Pro-Israel and pro-Palestinian protests took place in Manhattan, New York on Thursday, just as a ceasefire between Israel and Hamas was set to go into effect following 11 days of bloody conflict.

A number of vehicles drove through Manhattan’s Diamond District in New York, waving Palestinian flags and throwing slurs against Israel and Jews. The district is home to many Jewish-owned businesses.

Protests later escalated to violence, with the NYPD arresting multiple rioters in Times Square.
