On November 11, a major march named 'March for Palestine' took place in London's capital drew thousands of participants. The crowd gathered from the Park Lane area, advancing through main streets in the city center, carrying Palestinian flags and banners calling for an immediate ceasefire in the Gaza Strip.
The protest unfolded amid a serious escalation of the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Demonstrators chanted slogans such as 'Let Gaza Live' and 'Ceasefire Now.' Many carried signs demanding an end to airstrikes and the blockade on Gaza.
London police deployed a large force to ensure the event's security. According to a statement from the Metropolitan Police, the event proceeded peacefully with no serious incidents reported. Several roads were temporarily closed to accommodate the march.
