PHOTOS: Gaza Protests at LOVE Park

On Wednesday afternoon, pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups demonstrated over the current conflict in the Middle East.

As the conflict in Gaza intensifies, on Wednesday afternoon around 1,500 protesters gathered at LOVE Park to show support for their side.

On one side of the block pro-Israel protesters chanted and demonstrated, while on the other side of the street pro-Palestine activists gathered to counter-protest. The demonstrations were mostly civil, though at one point there was a fight in which a pro-Palestine activist was briefly detained, but not charged.
