Biden visits Michigan with security precautions to avoid protests over the Gaza war. US President Joe Biden visited the state of Michigan, which is an electoral battleground, amid protests against his support for the Israeli war on Gaza.

Local authorities closed the roads leading to the UAW headquarters, but about 100 demonstrators marched toward the headquarters - before Biden met with union leaders. They waved the Palestinian flag and chanted slogans saying, “The atmosphere that supports genocide must go.” Biden's campaign kept secret the details of his visit to avoid the protesters.
