Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA man who climbed Big Ben’s Elizabeth Tower at London’s Palace of Westminster waving a Palestinian flag early on Saturday has come down after 16 hours, Sky News reports.
Local media reports that he shouted “free Palestine.”
Emergency crews had gone up in a crane to negotiate with the man, and he came down after earlier telling negotiators he would come down “on his own terms,” according to the Sky News report.
