LONDON — An estimated 300,000 marched through London today, a police spokesman tells AFP, as pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel demonstrators make their latest mass call for a ceasefire in Gaza.

Police are out in force for the march, which has generated concern because it coincides with Armistice Day, commemorating the end of fighting in World War I in 1918, with 82 counter-protestors arrested to prevent possible clashes.
