Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleProtesters leave empty strollers in London’s Parliament Square in a call for the return of the Israeli hostages held by terrorists in the Gaza Strip.
Each stroller contains the photo of one of the at least 30 babies and children confirmed snatched by terrorists during the October 7 massacre.
Some 1,400 people were killed in the onslaught, and 200-250 are being held captive in the Gaza Strip.

The installation comes hours ahead of a rally in central London to call for the release of the hostages, and a day after some 100,000 people attended a pro-Palestinian march in the British capital.
