Hundreds of thousands of people marched peacefully through central London on Saturday to express their support for Palestinians, even as right-wing counter-protesters clashed with police, after a week of angry debate over whether to permit the demonstration on a day when Britain honoured its war dead.
A man was seen being detained by police and put into a police van as police hemmed in right-wing protesters in the Westminster area of the capital.
The demonstrators had turned out in force to counter a mass rally in support of the Palestinian people amid the latest war between Israel and Hamas.
