His police London arrested today dozens of organization supporters Palestine actionwho demonstrated despite demands to cancel their protest after the deadly attack on a synagogue at Manchester.
Two people were killed during the attack on Thursday, in this city of northwestern England, while police shot and killed the perpetrator, a Syrian origin of a British descent, for whom the anti -terrorist agency said he might have adopted extremist Islamist ideology.

British Prime Minister Kir Starmer had previously addressed today, through X, a call for calm saying: “I call on all those who are thinking of demonstrating this weekend to recognize and respect the pain of British Jews. It’s a moment of lament. It is not time to cause tension and more pain. It’s time to stand next to each other. “
Officers arrested protesters at Trafalgar Square who wrote slogans in banners stating their support in the Palestine Action, which was banned in July after members of an air base and caused damage to military planes.
Hundreds of people had gathered for the demonstration and applauded and cheered those arrested as they were transported without resistance to the cages by police. “Shame on you,” the police shouted.
Six people were arrested in another incident after raising a Palestine Action banner on the Westminster Bridge outside parliament.
