Migrant standoff in NYC turns ugly as 10 outside activists move against media with open umbrellas

The ongoing migrant standoff at a Manhattan hotel turned ugly Wednesday after a group of about 10 outside activists used open umbrellas to prevent the news media from documenting the scene.
The intervention prompted several migrants to angrily confront a journalist who was shooting a video for Dubai-based Al Arabiya TV, with one migrant hitting the camera and dislodging its small monitor unit.

Some of the 35 migrants gathered in front of the Watson Hotel in Hell’s Kitchen also shouted at other camera operators to try to intimidate them.
NYPD cops issued warnings but made no arrests.
The newshound whose camera was struck, Ghassan Masoud, said he’d never been treated so badly during a career that’s included coverage of the Iraq War.

“In 30 years, even in war zones, I’ve never experienced aggression like that,” Masoud said.
“I know their situation is bad. I just want to tell their story and they attacked me.”
Masoud, who usually covers the United Nations, described the migrants as “aggressive.”
“One migrant threatened to hit me with a broom, which is when the cops stepped in and told them I had every right to film,” he said.

City Hall has blamed activists from groups including "South Bronx Mutual Aid" for fueling the standoff

City Hall has blamed activists from groups including “South Bronx Mutual Aid” for fueling the standoff.
The migrants have been camped out on the sidewalk since the weekend when they were told to relocate to a new migrant processing center at the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal in Red Hook.
City Hall has blamed activists from groups including “South Bronx Mutual Aid” for fueling the standoff, with mayoral press secretary Fabien Levy saying, “I don’t even understand the logic here.”
“Instead of encouraging asylum seekers to sleep in warm, indoor, temperature-controlled quarters at the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal, these groups are telling migrants to sleep in tents on the streets,” he tweeted Monday. “The lack of reasoning here is astounding.”

Every hypocrite lib/ Dem in our county has gone green, right? Posted on: 2023-02-01 12:53:33By: Anonymous
I hope all Calaveras County hypocrites, I mean dumbacrats have dumped their gas stoves and bought electric stoves. Please bring them to any recycling center not a landfill.
Also any and all wood pellet, firewood stoves and having an all electric house would make you favorable in Biden's eyes, as cloudy and blank they might be. And for goodness sake don't forget about that water heater, electric only, thank you.
I sure hope you liberal/ Dems want to save the earth and aren't just talking your usual BS. By the way, how's your electric car? You must feel proud of yourselves for going so green, listening to people like John Kerry while he flies around in his jet by himself to other countries picking up awards for his carbon footprint that's bigger then the average 75 American familes in one year, every month.
👍 Idiots.
