Twelve people were arrested at a pro-Palestine march in central London on Saturday afternoon which called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza.
The arrests were for a string of alleged offences, with one person detained on suspicion of support “for a proscribed organisation in relation to a placard”.
Others were arrested for alleged assaults on officers and refusal to remove face coverings. The Metropolitan Police said none of the officers who were assaulted were seriously injured.
