Rally For Jerusalem - Save Sheikh Jarrah

more pictures
Several thousand protesters including many Palestinians filled Whitehall outside Downing St in an emergency rally against the ethnic cleansing of Sheikh Jarrah in occupied Jerusalem and the brutal police attacks on worshippers in the Al Aqsa Mosque and other protesters as well as the hugely disproportionate bombing raids in response to rockets fired from Gaza which have caused many largely civilian deaths
The protest by Palestine Solidarity Campaign UK, Friends of Al Aqsa, Stop the War Coalition and Palestinian Forum in Britain, was supported by a wide range of other groups. Saturday 15th May is Nakba Day. It has special significance this year as Palestinians are being threatened with evictions in East Jerusalem and violent Israeli forces have defiled the Al Aqsa Mosque.
They were joined by a small group of Colombians who had earlier been protesting in Parliament Square against the ongoing violent attacks by police and paramilitaries on civilians which have killed at least 47 with many disappearances and arbitrary arrests and injured many more.
