LOS ANGELES—A group of protesters calling for a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas war and an end to U.S. military support of Israel marched onto the southbound 405 Freeway in West Los Angeles Tuesday, briefly halting traffic and creating a miles-long backup at the tail end of the morning rush hour.
The protesters, organized in part by the group IfNotNow Los Angeles, walked onto the freeway around 9 a.m. in the area of Venice Boulevard, creating an instant backup in traffic south of the 10 Freeway.
