Storyline


Thousands marched in the streets of London in the United Kingdom on Saturday, protesting against the Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip, calling for equal rights of Palestinians and demanding that the British government to add pressure in calls to stop the brutal violence.

The protest took place on the same day that Israeli fighter jets bombed and demolished Jala Tower, a high-rise building in Gaza City housing Al-Jazeera TV and Associated Press (AP) offices, as well as residential apartments.

The building "contained military assets belonging to the intelligence offices of Hamas," said an Israeli military spokesperson in a statement.

At least 148 Palestinians including 41 children have been killed during the week-long conflict in the Gaza Strip, according to reports.

Protesters have been voicing their opposition to Israel's military response in Gaza and the West Bank across Europe and at around 40 locations in the UK.

Saturday also marked the anniversary of the Nakba Day, or "Day of the Catastrophe," which was after Israel declared its independence in 1948.

The new wave of violence in the region is said by media outlets and experts to stem from an Israeli court decision which enabled authorities to forcibly remove Palestinian families from their homes in the West Bank.

The protest is against the violence but also to demand justice for Palestinians to be allowed to return to their properties.

"Because of the media, the way they are portraying it on the media, it's showing the injustice that they are facing. So they've come to basically bring justice to them," said Laya Harb, a protester.

"Enough is enough. We've got Joe Biden that comes out with Israel has a right to defend itself. Do the Palestinians not have that same right? We really need to put pressure on this government to put pressure on the Americans, to put pressure on the Israelis," said Marwan Elfallah, another protester.

They were joined by thousands of protesters who are alarmed at the escalating violence in the Middle East.
