Pro-Palestinian protesters gather at arms fair in London to protest over Gaza war

# Pro-Palestinian protesters gathered outside a major arms fair in London as it opened without the presence of Israeli government officials because of tension between Britain and Israel over the Gaza conflict. Police watched as around 300 protesters waved Palestinian flags and held up placards including one reading “UK: Stop arming Israel. Stop the Gaza Genocide“. The British government excluded the officials from the four-day event, but 51 Israeli defence companies are set to attend.
