Dozens Held in London for Pro-Palestine Action Support

POLICY WIRE — LONDON, UK — Authorities in London have detained dozens of individuals for voicing support for Palestine Action, a group recently labeled as a terrorist organization by the British government.

The arrests took place outside a London courthouse on Thursday, marking the first major protest in support of the proscribed group since Andy Burnham assumed the prime minister role.

Police had issued warnings to those planning to attend the demonstration, emphasizing that showing support for a banned organization could lead to legal consequences.
