WATCH: Thousands attend pro-Israel London demonstration; rallies planned for US
Thousands are taking part in a pro-Israel demonstration in London, a day after a major pro-Palestinian rally was held in the British capital after a ceasefire was agreed on, ending 11 days of intense fighting with the Hamas terror group in Gaza.
The demonstrators are a mixture of Israelis and Brits.
Similar rallies are planned today in the US cities of New York and Los Angeles.

Thank you to the @metpoliceuk, who ensured the #Israel rally passed off peacefully. There were small isolated troublespots but were contained without incident.
