Hannah Einbinder was arrested Thursday during a protest against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s appearance, becoming one of several demonstrators detained outside an event in Los Angeles. Einbinder, known for her role on “Hacks,” posted on her Instagram story afterward, urging her followers to focus on “the devastating genocidal war Israel is waging against the people of Palestine.” She was protesting alongside Sarah Sherman, Susan Sarandon, and others who gathered to voice opposition to Netanyahu’s visit.
Sources confirmed Einbinder’s arrest but did not specify how long she was detained or whether she was charged.
