UK police arrest London protesters opposing ban on Palestine Action

UK police made a number of arrests Thursday outside the Justice Ministry in London after protesters staged a silent demonstration against the government’s decision to proscribe the Palestine Action activist group.

Hawzah News Agency- Demonstrators held signs that read: “I oppose genocide. I support Palestine Action''.

Protests also took place Tuesday in Nottingham, Gloucester, Truro, Northampton, Oxford, Leeds, Newcastle, Cardiff, Aberystwyth, and Edinburgh.

The protest was organized by Defend Our Juries, which is holding demonstrations in 18 towns and cities from Nov. 18-29, demanding the lifting of the ban.

“The Terrorism Act is being weaponized to silence the public. We will continue to resist until the ban is lifted'', the group said on the US social media company X.

Huda Ammori, the group’s co-founder, is taking legal action against then-Home Secretary Yvette Cooper’s decision to outlaw the organization.
