At least 325 people were arrested during a protest organized by the group Palestine Action in the UK, according to police reports. The demonstration took place ahead of a court hearing concerning the government’s decision to ban the group.
The protest, which took place in London, saw participants gather to express support for Palestinian causes. Police stated that the event was considered a public order offense, leading to the large-scale arrests. No injuries were reported during the operation.
The group Palestine Action had previously been designated as a terrorist organization by UK authorities. The ban was challenged in court, and the protest was intended to draw attention to the legal battle. The government’s decision to ban the group was based on concerns over its alleged involvement in activities that could threaten national security. The court hearing is expected to determine the validity of the ban.
