WASHNGTON, DC: The 2024 White House Correspondents' Dinner saw a heated confrontation between Caitlyn Jenner and a group of anti-Israel protesters outside the White House, as reported by Daily Mail.

As Jenner made her way to the event on Saturday evening, April 27, she became involved in a tense exchange with demonstrators rallying against the United States' support for Israel amidst the ongoing conflict in Gaza.

Capturing the incident on video, the former Olympian approached the protesters, uttering the phrase "100 million Jews" before defiantly flipping them off as she entered the venue.

The protesters, demanding a ceasefire and urging journalists to boycott the dinner in solidarity with the Palestinian cause, had gathered outside the event venue. As Jenner attempted to navigate through the crowd, the situation quickly escalated.

In the viral video, Jenner is seen walking through the crowd of protesters, briefly pausing to engage with one individual by asking, "What is your name?" The crowd began chanting "Free Palestine," which led Jenner to turn around and record them before police officers escorted her away.

As tensions mounted, one protester shouted at Jenner, "You're so old, just please go home." The scene grew increasingly hostile, with police forced to hold back the crowd.

Unfazed by the confrontation, Jenner took to social media to share the video and a photograph of herself flipping off the protesters. In a scathing caption, she wrote, "There is no place for you or your vitriolic antisemitism in this country. Get the hell out - we don't tolerate terrorism here."

Jenner also shared a photo of her manager, Sophia Hutchins, making a similar gesture toward the crowd, accompanied by the caption: "After my manager, Sophia Hutchins, and I were mobbed and harassed by Hamas terrorist sympathizers on our way into #WHCD she had a very similar message for them. Surround yourself with a team of fighters - it's the only way!"
