White House gates left defaced by graffiti from pro-Palestinian activists

Gates to the White House vandalized by demonstrators taking part in this weekend's pro-Palestinian protests have yet to be cleaned up as of Monday morning.

"Today, the National Park Service in coordination with the White House Historical Association are coordinating the removal of the spray paint," a spokesperson for Washington, D.C.'s Metropolitian Police Department (MPD) told Fox News Digital.

Photos at an entry gate north of the White House show red handprints smeared across the bricks, pro-Palestine stickers and messages advocating to "free Palestine" in the aftermath of demonstration in Washington, D.C., Saturday.

"At the time, demonstrators attempting to vandalize and trespass at the vehicle gate were addressed without incident by our Uniformed Division officers and support teams," the MPD spokesperson told Fox News Digital.

Thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters descending on Washington over the weekend, marching on the White House, defacing multiple statues and wrapping Palestinian flags around a statue of Benjamin Franklin.
