'No need' for pro-Palestinian marches in London to continue if Israel-Gaza ceasefire holds, says Sadiq Khan
Briefly

London Mayor Sir Sadiq Khan expressed hope that the ceasefire in Gaza would diminish the need for pro-Palestinian protests in central London. He acknowledged the increased antisemitism and fear experienced by Jewish Londoners since the October 7 Hamas attacks. Despite praising police efforts to maintain order, he emphasized that the right to protest must remain protected. Khan's call for a ceasefire reflects his desire for peace, hoping it will lead to safety and security for all communities in London.
I’m hoping that the ceasefire bears fruit. I have been calling for a ceasefire for some time now.
It makes me angry and distressed that there are Londoners who can't go around our city because they are worried about being at the receiving end of antisemitism.
