British police arrested more than 466 people during protests linked to the banned Palestine Action group, marking one of the largest law enforcement operations against the activist group in recent months.
The mass arrests took place amid demonstrations protesting the government’s ban on Palestine Action, an activist group known for direct actions against arms manufacturers linked to Israel’s military.
Authorities said the protests, held across multiple UK cities, involved attempts to disrupt operations at several industrial sites. Police described the demonstrations as “unlawful” and said they acted to maintain public order and safety.
Palestine Action’s ban came after a series of high-profile actions targeting companies supplying military equipment. Supporters argue the group campaigns for human rights, while opponents say its tactics are extreme and unlawful.
The government has yet to comment on the arrests but reiterated its commitment to tackling protests that disrupt business and threaten security.
