Police have issued warnings of mass arrests if a planned Palestine Action protest goes ahead in London this week. The protest, which was set to be the largest in the city, was banned by authorities due to concerns over potential public safety issues.

Despite the ban, protesters gathered in a show of solidarity with Palestine, leading to a significant number of arrests made by law enforcement. Demonstrators reportedly clashed with police as tensions flared during the protest.

The protest was organized in response to escalating violence in the Middle East, particularly in the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Activists at the protest called for an end to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories and for greater international support for the Palestinian people.

Authorities have warned that further protests could lead to more arrests if they do not adhere to the regulations set by the government. The situation remains tense as both protesters and police stand their ground in the face of differing ideologies and beliefs.
