Demonstrators marched to Trump International Hotel in Washington, D.C. on Saturday to protest the Trump administration’s airstrike that killed Iranian military commander Qasem Soleimani and ensued U.S. troop deployment to the Middle East. The Pentagon announced on Friday that nearly 3000 additional troops would be sent amid rising threats to American forces in the region.
Armed with chants and signs, the demonstrators began outside the White House. Actor and activist, Jane Fonda, joined the crowd, bringing her message about climate change awareness to the protest.
The D.C. protest came as tens of thousands of people marched in Iraq to mourn Soleimani and an Iraqi militia leader who were killed in the U.S. air strike.
