The big picture:
The U.K., particularly the capital, London, has witnessed pro-Palestinian demonstrations since the Israeli genocidal war on Gaza over the past 16 months. Today's protest rallies were held from the British Prime Minister's Office to the U.S. Embassy.
Key points:
- Demonstrations are fueled by opposition to Trump's relocation plan for ethnic cleansing in Gaza, which has been widely criticized and rejected internationally.
- Demonstrators are also criticizing the U.K. government for perceived complicity in Israel's actions, which they consider a genocide.
- Protesters are calling for the protection of Palestinian rights and condemning violations of international law by Israel.
Go deeper:
The Israeli regime launched an all-out war on the Gaza Strip in Palestine on October 7, 2023. The war led to the regime's massacre of more than 46,000 people. Yet, the current estimations show that the number is 41 percent lower than the real number, and the number of people killed exceeds 64,000.
