Thousands march in London for Palestine on Armistice Day
London, United Kingdom – – AFP
Huge crowds marched through the British capital on Saturday, calling for a halt to Israel’s attacks in Palestine.
The “National March for Palestine”, organised by the Stop the War Coalition, set off after a two-minutes’ silence to remember Britain’s war dead on Armistice Day was observed at The Cenotaph war memorial in central London.
Huge crowds of protesters waved black, red, white and green Palestinian flags and held aloft placards proclaiming “Stop Bombing Gaza”.
Five weeks of an Israeli military campaign has left over 11,000 people in Gaza dead, most of them children and women.
As the march set off, protesters shouted “free Palestine” and “ceasefire now”.
