What Happened

Police arrested multiple people at a Saturday vigil in London's Trafalgar Square opposing the ban on Palestine Action. Hundreds gathered organized by Defend Our Juries. The UK government proscribed Palestine Action as a terrorist organization in July 2025. A February High Court ruling deemed the proscription unlawful, but Metropolitan Police resumed arrests March 25. The government's appeal hearing is scheduled for April 28-29.
