Law enforcement officers detained over 300 individuals during a demonstration held outside the US embassy in London. Some reports state that exactly 325 people were taken into custody on Saturday at the protest, which was organized against the proscription of the direct action group Palestine Action.
According to reports, more than 4,000 people have faced arrest for supporting the group since it was officially proscribed in July 2025.
The demonstrations and subsequent arrests take place just ahead of a scheduled supreme court challenge. This upcoming legal proceeding on Wednesday will focus on the existing ban on the direct action group.
