On June 23, a demonstration in support of Palestine Action resulted in 13 arrests after protesters clashed with police. The Home Secretary is seeking to proscribe the group, which aims to disrupt the UK arms industry, making membership illegal. The protest, initially planned for Parliament Square, was redirected to Trafalgar Square due to police-imposed conditions. Arrested individuals faced various charges, including assaulting emergency workers and breaching public order regulations, with court appearances scheduled for several of them in the coming weeks.
There were 13 arrests in total at the event on Monday (June 23) in support of Palestine Action - a pro-Palestine group that aims to disrupt the arms industry in the UK.
The Home Secretary announced that the group would be proscribed which, if successful, would make membership illegal.
