WASHINGTON - A pro-Hamas rally is underway on Capitol Hill as demonstrators are occupying the Cannon Rotunda and large crowds are growing around the Capitol complex.
The Cannon House Office Building holds several House Committee and congressional offices.
U.S. Capitol Police say that demonstrations are not allowed inside Congressional buildings and are working to clear the crowd. Police have already detained some individuals as chants of "ceasefire now" are echoing around the building.
USCP also said more protesters are now walking in the roadway around the House side of the Capitol Complex and they have begun temporary rolling road closures for safety.
