Large crowds in London protest Israel's 'apartheid policies'

LONDON

A mass rally was held in central London on Sunday to protest Israel's "apartheid policies" against Palestinians.

Crowds gathered outside the Home Office carrying signs expressing solidarity with Palestinians bearing slogans including "Freedom for Palestine," "Boycott Apartheid" and "Stop Killing Palestinians."

Some Orthodox Jews were among those attending the protest, which was organized by the Justice for Palestine Committee as part of the annual "Quds Day” (Jerusalem Day).

People later marched towards the Prime Minister's Office, Downing Street, while chanting slogans against Israeli policies against Palestinians.

"Free Palestine!" was among the slogans chanted by the group with Palestinian flags.
