Protesters demanding release of hostages set to march in London this afternoon

Police in London are bracing for another day of demonstrations today as the war in Gaza continues to inflame tensions across the United Kingdom.

Demonstrators demanding the immediate release of all the remaining hostages in Gaza plan to march through central London to the prime minister’s residence at No. 10 Downing Street this afternoon. The march comes a day after police arrested 474 people at a protest in support of a banned pro-Palestinian organization.

Among those expected to attend the rally is Noga Guttman, a cousin of 24-year-old hostage Evyatar David, who was featured in a video that was released by Hamas last week. The video showed an emaciated David saying he is digging his own grave inside a tunnel in Gaza.

“We are united in one clear and urgent demand: the immediate and unconditional release of all hostages,” Stop the Hate, a coalition of groups organizing the march, says in a statement. “Regardless of our diverse political views, this is not a political issue — it is a human one.”
