This question will use data published by the Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project (ACLED), which runs the United States Crisis Monitor.
The ACLED's Crisis Monitor categorizes demonstrations by driver and publishes counts of demonstration events for each week. One driver the ACLED tracks is "pro-Palestine/anti-Israel", which came in at 173 demonstrations in April 21-28, the highest number since tracking began in October 2023.
This question resolves YES to each above-listed threshold that is met or exceeded in-terms of the ACLED's pro-Palestine/anti-Israel demonstration counts for any week in May. Any threshold not met or exceeded in any week in May resolves NO after all counts are published.
"demonstration count" means the combined total of protests plus riots
"any week in May" means Sunday-Monday 7-day periods which start in the month of may, meaning the following weeks: May 5-11, May 12-18, May 19-25, May 26-Jun 1.
