Seven people have been charged following a Palestine Action protest in central London. The protest took place in Trafalgar Square, where clashes occurred between officers and protesters. Charges include racially aggravated public order offences, assaulting an emergency worker, and breaching the Public Order Act.
The protest came after the home secretary announced plans to ban Palestine Action under anti-terror law. The group faces being designated as a terrorist organization if Parliament approves the move. Supporters gathered in central London, carrying signs and Palestinian flags, protesting against the ban.
Following the protest, several individuals were charged with various offences. Liam Mizrahi and Lavina Richards were held in custody, while Bipasha Tahsin, Eleanor Simmonds, Matthew Holbrook, Tom Jubert, and Hafeza Choudhury were charged and bailed. Court appearances are scheduled for July.
