Pro-Palestine activists initiated the Anas Al-Sharif encampment outside the Israeli consulate in Houston, Texas, demanding an end to arms sales to Israel and the lifting of the blockade on Gaza. The movement called for solidarity from supporters in major U.S. cities including Chicago, Los Angeles, Atlanta, New York City, and San Francisco. Concurrently, a silent protest took place outside Lockheed Martin’s Long Island facility, condemning the defense contractor's role in supplying weapons to Israel and urging an end to U.S. involvement in the conflict. Houston police intervened to disperse the encampment, employing mounted units that charged at protesters, though the horses became spooked during the confrontation. The protesters continue to call for nationwide support to amplify their demands.
