The demonstrators sat on the wet pavement with Palestinian flags and unfurled a banner reading 'Don't celebrate genocide! Arms embargo now,' specifically targeting the Ronald McDonald balloon due to McDonald's Israel's previous support of Israeli forces.

The 98th annual parade featured 17 giant balloons, 22 floats, 15 novelty inflatables, 11 marching bands, 700 clowns, and numerous celebrity performances, drawing massive crowds despite the rainy weather.

This marked the second consecutive year of pro-Palestinian protests at the parade, following last year's demonstration where 34 protesters were detained for similar actions.

The parade route stretched 2.5 miles from Manhattan's Upper West Side to Macy's Herald Square, with temperatures around 50°F and winds at 10 mph, allowing the balloons to fly safely within city regulations.
