White House condemns pro-Hamas demonstrators outside exhibit for Oct. 7 victims as 'horrifying' [View all]

The White House condemned the pro-Palestine protest outside of the Nova exhibit in New York, which honors the victims of the Oct. 7 Hamas attack on Israel.

In a statement Tuesday, White House spokesperson Andrew Bates called the demonstrations “horrifying behavior.”

“The events at yesterday’s memorial to those murdered at the Nova music festival are outrageous and heartbreaking,” Bates said.

“Profane banners of terrorist organizations should not be flown anywhere, especially not on American streets. Antisemitism has no place in the United States. This horrifying behavior is all the more reason for ‘Americans to stand united against antisemitism and hate in all its forms,’ like President Biden urgently called for at the Holocaust Memorial Museum last month,” he added.
