Students in the United States are protesting President Donald Trump’s gun policy in the backdrop of a deadly shooting at a school in Parkland, Florida.
On Monday, dozens of teens staged a lie-in protest in front of the White House to decry lack of gun control in the US.
The demonstrators chanted slogans against the National Rifle Association (NRA) as well.
They also highlighted the US Congress’ inaction in tackling the country’s gun violence.
The lie-in protest came after 17 students and school staff were killed and 16 more were injured at Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School on Wednesday.
Monday’s protest was organized by a group called Teens for Gun Reform over Facebook.
"We must stand together in solidarity as the younger generations, and show our legislators that we demand reform in order to feel safer in our classrooms," the group declared on Facebook.
