Hundreds of demonstrators who were arrested in London for their support are a banned group of Palestinian

British police said that they had arrested 365 people in central London on Saturday as supporters of a banned group in support of the Palestinians intentionally as part of their efforts to force the government to reconsider this ban.

Parliament in early July issued a ban law The work of Palestine And making it a crime to support the organization publicly. This came after activists stormed the Royal Air Force Base and sabotaged two tankers to protest against Britain’s support for Israel’s attack against Hamas. In the Gaza Strip.

Supporters of the group, who held a series of protests throughout the United Kingdom during the past month, argue that the law illegally restricts freedom of expression.

More than 500 demonstrators filled the square outside the role of Parliament on Saturday, as many bold police arrested them by offering reading signs “I oppose genocide. I support the Palestinians to work.” That was enough for the police to enter.

But when the demonstration began to go out, police organizers and protest erupted on the number of arrests as the organizers sought to show that the law is not applicable.

“The police were not only able to arrest a small portion of those who commit” terrorism “crimes, and most of them have obtained a sponsorship in the street and allowed them to return home,” she said in a statement. “This is a great embarrassment for (the government), which increases the credibility of this widely restored law, which was brought to punish those who suffer from government crimes.”

The Capital Police Service soon fell, saying that this was not true and that many of those who gathered in the square were spectators, media or people who did not carry banners supporting the group.

“We are confident that anyone who came to the Square of Parliament today to carry a sign, expressing its support for the effectiveness of Palestine, was arrested, or that he was arrested,” the police force said in a statement.

On Friday, the police said the demonstration was unusual in that the demonstrators wanted to arrest them in large numbers to put pressure on the police and the wider criminal justice system.
