The UN, aid emergencies and human rights organisations have urged world leaders to intervene as many Palestinians struggle to flee ahead of a “co-ordinated” offensive in the Gaza Strip involving air, ground and naval forces.
Chants of “Rishi Sunak, shame on you” and “from the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” rang out among the crowd as the gathering made its way through the capital to Downing Street. Nine officers were treated for minor injuries amid altercations between police and a small minority of protesters in Trafalgar Square after the main gathering broke up.The Prime Minister, in his statement on Saturday, offered a direct message to Israel and the UK’s Jewish community – both left reeling following the assault by Palestinian militants.
Mr Sunak’s statement was questioned by Amnesty International UK, which said it was “deeply troubling” the Prime Minister failed to mention the Palestinian civilians killed in the conflict or call for international law to be upheld.
