Susan Sarandon, Hannan Ainbinder Detained at UN Protest Against Netanyahu
Actress Susan Sarandon and fellow actress Hannan Ainbinder were among those detained by police on September 24 during a protest against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu outside the United Nations headquarters in New York. The detentions occurred shortly before Netanyahu's scheduled address at the UN General Assembly. Images of Sarandon and Ainbinder being led away in handcuffs circulated widely on social media.
Both actresses have been vocal critics of Israel and supporters of Palestinian rights. Ainbinder previously spoke at the Cannes Film Festival about her pro-Palestinian stance, stating that the "price of silence is higher" and that she prioritizes human life over her career. She emphasized her commitment to speaking out, viewing it as a duty.
