Dressed in helmets and holding batons, police pushed protesters away from the consulate, two miles (3.2 km) from the United Center where the convention is being held. Police were seen making several arrests.

Protests against the U.S. support for Israel's war in Gaza have overshadowed the convention, where most of the speakers have avoided the topic.
