- One video showed the group chanting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” — a chant which interior minister Suella Braverman has previously criticized as an antisemitic demand for the destruction of Israel
LONDON: More than a hundred pro-Palestinian protesters gathered at London’s Liverpool Street station on Tuesday, hanging banners from balconies and occupying the main concourse while demanding a cease-fire in the Israel-Hamas conflict.
Videos posted online by the ‘Sisters Uncut’ protest group showed a large group of demonstrators inside the station during rush hour, chanting and waving pro-Palestinian flags and banners.
One video showed the group chanting “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free” — a chant which interior minister Suella Braverman has previously criticized as an antisemitic demand for the destruction of Israel. Other groups dispute that interpretation of the chant.
Sisters Uncut describes itself as a feminist group against domestic violence, but held a similar pro-Palestinian demonstration at Waterloo station on Saturday.
The City of London Police and Britain’s Transport Police did not immediately comment.
