Police appeal after pro-Palestinian convoy
- 6 months ago
Police headed off a pro-Palestinian convoy of 80 vehicles after traffic was halted in east London on Saturday night (November 18).
Photos of 15 people have been issued by detectives of people suspected of offences after the convoy was halted in Exhibition Road, Kensington, having disrupted east London traffic on the A13 and in the Limehouse Link Tunnel.
Police say they took action following antisemitism at similar incidents. Commander Karen Findlay said: "They understandably caused significant concern, fear and upset."
Since the terrorist attacks by Hamas on October 7, protests have been held in London calling for Israel to halt its military action in Gaza - as well as protests calling for Hamas to release its hostage.
But communities in London have reported a rise in antisemitic and Islamophobic incidents.
