Pro-Palestine Action arrests in London

Pro-Palestine Action arrests in London

The protest in Trafalgar Square challenged the government's recent decision to proscribe Palestine Action as a terrorist organization.

High-profile figures, including Massive Attack frontman Robert Del Naja, were among those carried away by police during the operation.

Organizers have criticized the mass arrests as a violation of free speech, citing a recent High Court ruling that questioned the legality of the ban.

The police have defended their actions, stating that the group's activities pose a significant threat to public safety and national security.
