Hundreds of demonstrators gathered in central London on Sunday to show support for Israel and call for the release of hostages held in Gaza. The march was led by the UK's chief rabbi and members of a Jewish direct action group, with participants carrying Israeli flags and placards featuring images of hostages. Some attendees voiced frustration over the UK's plan to recognise a Palestinian state, describing it as a 'reward for Hamas'. The event saw one arrest for common assault and a racially aggravated public order offence, according to police.
