Amidst calls for a day of protest by Islamic leaders, SAG-AFTRA has canceled plans to picket on Friday in Los Angeles and New York.
Federal and local law enforcement officials have warned the public to be wary after Hamas has urged its supporters to create a day of action in the streets on Friday. What form that takes is unclear, but law enforcement is stepping up its watches.
Reuters reported Wednesday that former Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal called for a “Day of Jihad” on Friday the 13th. The LAPD has since announced an uptick in patrols — especially in Jewish and Muslim communities — for Friday. New York police are also on high alert.
“This is being done out of an abundance of caution for our members,” said a well-positioned Guild member to Deadline.
