The protest was organized by three advocacy groups and held in an area near the U.S. Capitol. Protesters linked arms in front of the DNC building's entrance, where some sang: "Which side are you on?" "One person has been arrested for assault on an officer," Capitol Police said on social media. A DNC spokesperson said officials were monitoring the situation outside the DNC headquarters and were in touch with U.S. Capitol and local Washington police. Jewish Voice for Peace wrote on social media that the protesters had gathered to lay out candles for Palestinians killed during Israel's bombardment and to call for a ceasefire.
