Multiple arrests made after thousands attend Al Quds Day pro-Palestine protest

Multiple arrests have been made after thousands of pro-Palestinian protesters marched through central London for the annual Al Quds Day demonstration. The protesters marched from the Home Office to Downing Street on Friday afternoon. The rally – organised by the Islamic Human Rights Commission (IHRC) in support of Palestine – has been criticised in the past after participants flew flags of the Lebanese militant Hezbollah group and brandished signs with allegedly antisemitic messages.
