Tens of thousands of people are gathering in London for a weekly pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel demonstration.

This week’s protest comes after the UK’s counterterrorism commissioner warned that the streets of central London have become “a no-go zone for Jews every weekend.”

London police urged demonstrators to stick to their permitted route and warned them to “comply with orders and requests from our officers. Those who are found to be breaking the law will be dealt with accordingly.”
