Protester with 'war criminal' sign carried out of Blinken hearing

A person protesting against the Biden administration’s response to the Israel-Hamas war was lifted out of a Senate Foreign Relations hearing on Tuesday after interrupting Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s testimony.

The protester, a young woman wearing a t-shirt that read “invest in life,” held two signs reading “war criminal,” referring to Blinken. She was quickly subdued by Capitol Police as she approached Blinken, and was lifted off her feet and taken out of the hearing room.
