Pro-Palestine protesters block New York Times distribution centre

A group of pro-Palestinian activists disrupted the distribution centre for The New York Times in Queens, New York, blocking off all entrances to the centre in the early hours of Thursday morning.

Protesters have held several demonstrations in front of, and also inside, The New York Times' office, criticising their coverage of Israel's war on Gaza, which many Palestinian activists have said is biased in favour of Israel.

Banners held by the activists read "Stop the Presses. Free Palestine" and "Consent for genocide manufactured here".

After the blockade, activists flooded the lobby of the Times, shouting for people to unsubscribe from the newspaper.
