Pro-Palestinian Protesters Demand UK Arms Embargo on Israel | Latest News

In a striking demonstration in London on Wednesday morning, pro-Palestinian protesters gathered to block the entrances to the Business and Trade Department, voicing their opposition against the UK's sale of arms to Israel. The protest saw a significant turnout, with participants waving Palestinian flags and displaying banners demanding an immediate ceasefire in the ongoing conflict.

Amid the chanting and rallying, police were present to maintain order, as tensions ran high. Protester Amelia Horgan spoke passionately about the UK government's role, accusing it of complicity through military and political support to Israel. She called for decisive actions: an immediate arms embargo and a ceasefire, alongside advocating for the freedom of Palestine.
