In a clash with Saturday’s pro-Palestinian march, the Metropolitan Police strongly denounced “extreme violence from right-wing protesters.”

Nine officers were injured, and 126 arrests were made, with the majority being counter-protesters.

While the march itself remained largely peaceful, the police are investigating serious anti-Semitic hate crimes.

Prime Minister  Rishi Sunak emphasized that those responsible for crimes must face the full force of the law.

Chancellor Boris Johnson condemned the violence, specifically pointing to the EDL and associated groups, as well as Hamas sympathizers.

The massive pro-Palestinian demonstration, coinciding with Armistice Day, drew 300,000 people in central London, marking the largest UK rally since the Israel-Hamas conflict began on October 7.
