Hundreds of pro-Palestinian protesters overran an October 7 memorial vigil in New York’s Union Square, forcing organizers to relocate as demonstrators drowned out tributes to victims of the Hamas massacre. When Mayor Zohran Mamdani arrived, protesters turned on him, chanting “Traitor!” and accusing him of bowing to Zionists. One shouted at mourners: “We don’t want peace with Israelis, bro! We sent your people to hell on October 7.” Another displayed a poster of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar. The vigil, organized by the left-wing group Israelis for Peace, continued behind police barricades as attendees struggled to hear testimonies from victims’ families. Mamdani remained silent, neither addressing the crowd nor confronting the protesters.
