Pro-Palestinian Protesters Block Roads in Britain

Pro-Palestinian protesters closed roads outside the British Parliament in London, demanding an immediate ceasefire in the conflict between Israel and Hamas. Clashes occurred between the protesters and police, who prevented them from marching onto Westminster Bridge. Videos posted on social media showed police blocking demonstrators from reaching the bridge, with a Reuters correspondent reporting minor clashes. The protesters occupied the surrounding roads after they were unable to fully access the bridge, where they had planned to hold signs. The police stated that a legal order was imposed to designate areas where protests are allowed, and the protesters began to disperse by 3 PM. The police added that those who refuse to comply with the order to leave would be arrested.
