Thousands took to the streets of London demanding the lifting of the ban on Palestine Action Group. The protest, organized by “Defend Our Juries,” drew around 1,500 demonstrators. Clashes erupted when police moved in, with more than 425 protesters arrested. Eyewitnesses reported baton charges, protesters thrown to the ground, and arbitrary arrests for holding placards saying “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action.” Press Association reports noted police brutality, including one protester bleeding from the face after arrest. Police later claimed officers were subjected to “unprecedented violence, including punches, kicks, spitting, and stone-throwing.”
