THE GUARDIAN: Jeremy Corbyn and Palestinian ambassador address crowd and call for UK government to act
Thousands of people marched through central London on Saturday to express solidarity with the Palestinians in Gaza.
Organisers said immediate action is needed from the UK government to help end the brutal violence.
At least 139 people have been killed in the Gaza Strip, including 39 children, after a spiral of violence that began with the attempted eviction of Arabs from the Sheikh Jarrah neighbourhood in East Jerusalem. In Israel at least seven people have been killed, including one child.
Saturday is the Palestinian Nakba day, the anniversary of the expulsion of hundreds of thousands of Arabs from their homes more than 70 years ago. » | Damien Gayle | Saturday, May 15, 2021
