London police detained over 200 people during a major protest supporting Palestine Action, a group recently banned under anti-terrorism laws. The arrests mark the largest crackdown since the ban was imposed last month.
Editor’s Note: This story highlights escalating tensions around pro-Palestinian activism in the UK and raises questions about the balance between security measures and the right to protest. The scale of the arrests suggests authorities are taking a hardline stance, which could fuel further debate over free speech and counterterrorism policies.
