In a dramatic turn of events, Americans in major cities like New York City and Washington, D.C. have taken to the streets following U.S. strikes on three Iranian nuclear sites.
At Times Square, around 100 demonstrators gathered with banners reading "Stop the War on Iran" and "Hands Off Iran," voicing deep concerns over what they call dangerous military actions. Similar scenes unfolded near the White House, with videos spreading fast on social media.
The ANSWER Coalition, a prominent organizer, confirmed that emergency demonstrations are planned in more than 15 cities nationwide. They argue that the U.S. bombing of Iranian nuclear facilities violates international law and risks triggering a chain reaction that could lead to a regional or even global conflict, with catastrophic consequences.
This wave of protests has resonated strongly with young, tech-savvy citizens, especially in South and Southeast Asia, who are always tuned into global trends and social movements. Many see these events as a powerful call to uphold peace, reexamine international norms, and ensure that conflicts do not spiral out of control. 🌍✌️
As discussions flare up online and on the streets, the momentum for a more peaceful approach continues to build. Stay tuned as events develop and voices for change grow louder across the globe.
