Protests in support of Palestine are set to take place across the UK, with more than 100 rallies planned. The Metropolitan Police will stage a 'significant' operation to deal with any unrest and will not tolerate hate crimes. The British Transport Police have banned protests at many of London's main rail stations to prevent severe disruption. A vigil was held at Downing Street to mourn the civilians and healthcare workers killed in Israel's bombing campaign on the Gaza Strip. The protests are part of a coordinated day of action to call for a ceasefire.
