Several thousand pro-Palestinian protesters marched through central London on Saturday. They called for an end to Israeli strikes on Gaza, three years after a Hamas attack on October 7, 2023. Marchers carried placards reading "End the genocide" and "Free Palestine" as they made their way near the British parliament.
The protesters marked three years of what they described as an "ongoing genocide" in Gaza. According to the Palestine Solidarity Campaign's director, Aimee Shalan, UK-led Western sanctions over settler violence did not go far enough, and she called for "full sanctions on Israel".
The march, organised by the Palestine Coalition, came three days after the third anniversary of the October 7, 2023 attack. According to Gaza's health ministry, Israeli strikes have killed some 1,450 Palestinians since a ceasefire began a year ago.
