Hundreds of supporters of Gaza and Hamas assembled near Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue in Los Angeles.
One activist was even seen carrying the bloodied “head” of President Joe Biden on a stick, in protest of US support for its ally Israel in the war against Palestinian terrorists.
Hundreds of Hamas supporters assembled near Sunset Boulevard and Highland Avenue on Sunday afternoon in Los Angeles, according to ABC.
Despite the Los Angeles Police Department issuing a dispersal order, most of the radicals remained, staying on during red-carpet arrivals.
The outlet reported that some of the guests were stuck in traffic due to the protest and the massive security measures put in place for the awards show.
Video on social media showed some of the attendees walking past terrorist supporters who were screaming at them to demand a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas war.
However, it appeared as if the majority of attendees made it to the theater on time for the award ceremony’s opening featuring host Jimmy Kimmel.
In the lead-up to the event, security was significantly increased and the Dolby Theatre and the red carpet was cordoned off for several blocks in every direction. According to the LAPD, activists were kept outside the security zone and were able to clear the intersections following the dispersal order.
Multiple competing actions were part of the protests including “Shut Down the Oscars,” "All Eyes on Rafah," and a protest organized by groups associated with Hollywood, including some members of SAG-AFTRA and writers calling for a cease-fire.
Rapper Macklemore who has a history of antisemitism was spotted among the protestors chanting against the Jewish state.
Several of the Oscar attendees, including Billie Eilish, Finneas, and Mark Ruffalo wore pins calling for a ceasefire or advocating for Palestine.
Others at the star-studded event were seen wearing pins advocating for the 136 hostages still held by Hamas and other Palestinian terrorists in Gaza.
