Police arrest 34 people at the Brooklyn Museum after protesters occupy building

The New York Police Department reported taking 34 people into custody following a pro-Palestinian protest at the Brooklyn Museum on Friday.

The protest, organized by Within Our Lifetime, aimed to “de-occupy” the museum until it disclosed and divested from investments linked to Israel’s military actions in Gaza.

Starting at the Barclays Center, the protest reached the museum by 4:30 p.m., where participants occupied the public plaza and entered the building.

According to museum spokesperson Taylor Maatman, protesters blocked entrances, displayed banners, and caused damage to artwork, NBC News reported.
