28 Arrested in Protest at Travis Air Force Base

A pro-Palestinian protest at Travis Air Force Base in Fairfield resulted in the arrest of 28 individuals who were demonstrating against U.S. military support for Israel amid the ongoing Israel-Hamas conflict. Around 50 protesters attempted to block access to the base, despite police warnings that such actions were unlawful. Law enforcement, including Fairfield police and the Solano County Sheriff's Office, facilitated the arrests at various gates of the base, with no injuries reported. The protest was part of a larger movement called the 'People's Arms Embargo', aimed at halting U.S. arms supplies to Israel. This initiative coincides with escalating casualties reported in the conflict, with significant losses on both sides. Activists plan further demonstrations, correlating with World Children's Day, to raise awareness about the humanitarian crisis.
